    Description

      I do not have much experience with Jenkins and am facing a weird issue which has got me puzzled.

      I have 2 machines say M1(master-Windows 10) and M2(slave-Windows 10) on the same network. I am able to ping M1 from M2 and vice-versa.

      On M1, when I:

      • install Jenkins as a Windows service, then from M2, I am able to access the JenkinsUI(via http://MachineName:8080)
      • install Jenkins using the generic war package, then from M2, I am not able to access the JenkinsUI(via http://MachineName:8080)

      Why I am not able to access the JenkinsUI from slave machine(M2) when I install Jenkins via war package even when the ping test is successful? Is there something I am missing? Has anyone ever faced such an issue before?

      Background: The reason I want to install Jenkins on M1 using the war package and not as a windows service is that I need to trigger my UI Test Automation Scripts on the slave machine, M2 which will not be triggered when Jenkins is installed as a service.

          Hi Team,

          I am really hoping to get a solution on this forum. Please help me with this issue. I never faced such an issue before. Recently, our existing Jenkins server machine had to be decommissioned. I am facing this issue while setting up jenkins on a new machine.

          Thanks,

          Gurman

          Just as an FYI, Jira is not a forum for asking questions. If you want to ask questions and have someone actually see it, you probably want to join the jenkins users mailing list and post there.
