When installing Jenkins 1.639 from the jenkins-ci.org repository on a debian based system, I receive the following error during the installation:
Setting up jenkins (1.639) ... * Starting Jenkins Continuous Integration Server jenkins [fail] invoke-rc.d: initscript jenkins, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing package jenkins (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 7}}
Tested against:
- Ubuntu 14.04
- Debian 8.1
This same failure does not happen when installing the older 1.635 package. The issue appears to be with the get_running function which is called by the do_check_started_ok function in the init script. It seems get_running is returning an exit code of 2, which in turn causes the init script to exit 7. Here's a diff of the two init scripts.
$ diff ~/jenkins.1.639.sh ~/jenkins.1.635.sh
