"Helper is null, unable to run trigger"

[ixdy]

The Jenkins log constantly shows severe-level error messages of the form

Jun 19, 2015 5:12:01 PM SEVERE org.jenkinsci.plugins.ghprb.GhprbTrigger run
Helper is null, unable to run trigger

It's unclear whether these messages are benign or indicative of a problem. If they are a configuration issue, they give no hint at to what is actually wrong or how one could fix the issue.

I have seen that also, let me see what I might be able to do

I am guessing you have a project that is disabled, but has the trigger set up in the configuration. The problem arises when you restart jenkins, the plugin will start and run even though the plugin is disabled. Usually the project reference is only kept by the helper, so checking to see if the project is disabled wouldn't work if the helper is null.

I am adding a reference to the project in the Trigger class, and see if we can get rid of this nuisance.
