      Attempting to start Jenkins with 'java -jar jenkins.war' produces the following:

      Jenkins requires Java 8, but you are running 10.0.1+10 from /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-10.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home
      java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: 54.0
          at Main.main(Main.java:128)

      Reverting back to Jenkins 2.89.4 solves the problem of starting with Java 10.0.1. This exception is also thrown with Jenkins 2.119
