Hi Keith,
JENKINS Hangs forever without any log messages
Can you please look into my issue? I have attached sample screenshots from the install jenkins.
I have used the initial userid and password but i am unable to login.
I don't see any log files with log errors under logs directory.
I see a tasks directory with started and finished messages without any error messages.
Given below is a screenshot of the login.

I've fixed one of the causes:
JENKINS-34710. But seems there are still issues. Needs investigation
