Hello - I'm fairly new to Jenkins so bare with me please. I'm a Linux Admin so I versed in how to install and start Jenkins on *nix. However, my problem lies in "unlocking" Jenkins when I'm on a Windows host using the portable version downloaded from http://jenkins.io
I have followed the on-screen instructions and opened the log file and pasted the passcode but it never takes me anywhere or does anything for that matter. On the Windows server 2k12 we're using XAMPP and dropping that jenkins war file and launching tomcat through xampp. All of that seems to be working as expected so I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with XAMPP or tomcat b/c I can browse to http://server:8080/jenkins and i get the below webpage As stated above, I paste the passcode and it doesn't appear to be doing anything. Note: when i do enter a known "invalid" passcode like abc123 it does tell me the passcode is incorrect. However, when i paste the real passcode Jenkins doesn't do anything.... Needs some help please.... Unlock Jenkins To ensure Jenkins is securely set up by the administrator, a password has been written to the log (not sure where to find it? <https://jenkins.io/redirect/find-jenkins-logs>) and this file on the server: C:\Users\sysadmin\.jenkins\secrets\initialAdminPassword Please copy the password from either location and paste it below. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
