I think we have the same issue, this is the error from log

Sorry, I messed up the comments

Since I started using Hudson regularly (around v1.360) I always get the exact same error message (as seen above in the comments), when trying to do an automatic update and restart of the Hudson service.

OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2
Hudson versions: 1.360-1.375

If I can provide more info that helps to fix the problem, please let me know.

As of 1.391, I cannot reproduce this problem. I'm assuming my fix to JENKINS-5090 or earlier had done the trick.

This does reproduce on our Jenkins deployment.
We use Jenkins ver. 1.429, though older versions were also affected.

On restart request "Please wait while Jenkins is restarting..." is displayed forever in browser and jenkins.err.log has:

INFO: Restart in 10 seconds

Does not reproduce when restarting Jenkins win service manually.
