Github Pull Request Builder - Cannot trigger build and cannot set build status on github commit

Question

I'm using GitHub pull request builder plugin to setup a build per pull request.

However, this build is not triggered for any new pull request or new commit on a pull request. There are few exception on the Jenkins log. I have no clue what's wrong according to those logs.

Thanks in advance.

Finally, the problem is I haven't set Github project field in job configuration.

After configed that field, everything works well.
