I have a large multi-module maven project, which is handled by a number of jobs in jenkins. I have noticed that not all downstream jobs are trggered when an upstream job finishes successfully. The upstream and downstream jobs are calcualated automatically by Jenkins. Sometimes a subset of the jobs are triggered, and sometimes none. This puzzles me, any good explanations out there ?

In the category better late than never:
There was a bug in the maven job code which would ignore triggers if upstream dependencies were still building :
see https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-21903
this was fixed end september 2014, so any relatively recent version should no longer be affected by this.
