Sorry to be a Johnny come lately – but we have only used SSH launch of windows for quite a long time now.
We use Cygwin to do so. You can use any SSH server though. The most important thing is to ensure Java’s home has no spaces in the path. The second most important thing is to use mixed pathing constructs. E.g. javaPath='C:/programs.x64/Java/jdk-14/bin/java note the forward slashes. It is a happy middle ground for bash and java.

So, there are probably some leftovers from the plugin only being used on *NIX systems.

I have the reverse, a Windows controller and Linux agents. I specify the JAVA_HOME environment variable in my agent configuration and that works. Can you try that?

How to fix that? How can I fix this? Should I escape the env var JAVA_HOME and add quote into it? will it break something else? I’m trying to move the slave execution from my development Windows laptop to our official Linux master.
