Hi, just tried to change the Port in my Jenkins.xml file. Old line: <arguments>-Xrs -Xmx256m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080</arguments>
Just changed the httpPort to 8282 , after a Service restart, Jenkins started correctly at Port 8282. So maybe just try the simple line code: <arguments>-Xrs -Xmx256m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --httpPort=YOUPORT</arguments> (Im also not sure, you wrote *8283 *in your line, hopefully you did not try to enter Jenkins after your changes at port *8282 *like your http://myserver.com:8282/jenkins) Clem
