The 'Remote FS root' of the slave is set to: C:\Jenkins The job checks out a svn repo and executes a very simple Windows batch command: dir When it runs, the checkout succeeds but the dir command fails: FATAL: command execution failed java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "cmd" (in directory "/data/<Hudson user name>/workspace/<job name>"): Why is Jenkins doing its work in /data/... and not in c:\Jenkins?
