How to get atlassian bamboo to trigger a build automatically from a post commit hook

Question

Trying to trigger atlassian bamboo 2.7 to do a build after we do commits to our git server.

Apparently I have to hit a certain api url with wget:

wget --no-check-certificate http://myserver.net/build/updateAndBuild.action?buildKey=ABC-DEF

However this does not work. When i run this command, nothing is returned in the http reply, and i've done the following as i should have:

Configure the build strategy to triggered build mode
Set my IP address is the trigger IP address
Committed and pushed some new code

But it does nothing, any ideas?

Just to check, have you tried wget just from the command line, rather than in the post-commit hook? — Mark Longair
Yes, i was trying from the command line first before going to the hassle of adding it as a hook. I added my PC's IP as the trigger address whilst doing this too. — Chris

It's hard to say anything without looking into server logs. My tip is: go to https://support.atlassian.com/browse/BSP and describe the problem there attaching server logs.

And yes I work for Atlassian :)
