We have Jenkins installed on a linux machine but have to have a particular job run on windows. We use a slave for this. One of the things this job has to do is call a REST API to test availability of a service. If I run that service on the master, it runs without an issue. When I try to run it on the slave, accessing the content through "result.content" or "result.getContent()", it throws a NullPointerException.
This is a stripped down version of the call that produces the error. Using the commented out "agent any" to have it run on the master produces the expected result. Changing to the current uncommented agent causes the error.

Reducing priority since i found that using "responseHandle: 'STRING'" works for my use on the windows slave
