No source file, entry point, or test is identified. Start by reproducing the connection failure with Jenkins 2.413, Gerrit Trigger 2.39.0, and Gerrit 3.5.1 on Ubuntu 20.04, then inspect the plugin's Gerrit connection path and available diagnostics. Done means the cause is identified and the connection failure is resolved or reported with a specific actionable error.
