Failed to start Jenkins Continuous Integration Server

Hi All,

I tried to upgrade the SSH-Slave plugin to latest version to connect the master node with the worker node. When I clicked on restart Jenkins after the installation, the Jenkins stopped but did not start from the web. I went into terminal to start jenkins by ‘sudo systemctl start jenkins’ and Access Denied error came.

After that I took a backup of the Jenkins and tried to install the new Jenkins version for my redhat server. I followed the guide (Linux & Redhat Jenkins Packages) to install Jenkins. I tried installing multiple java versions, but journalctl -xe throwed error jenkins: invalid Java version:openjdk version “11” .

Some how the above invalid java error is now gone as I installed the java version from the organization provider and tried to install the Jenkins again.

Currently below error are coming -

[root@bnzcicd01 lib]# sudo systemctl status jenkins

Please look into the logs and let me know if anyone have the solution

The Jenkins platform SIG stopped all efforts with the OpenJ9 virtual machine (IBM Semeru) about 2 years ago. We didn’t have active contributors that were willing to test it or maintain it.

The hotspot virtual machine is available from Eclipse Temurin for Java 11 on amd64, aarch64, s390x, and ppc64le. The hotspot virtual machine is regularly tested with Jenkins on multiple architectures.
Use the hotspot virtual machine, not the OpenJ9 virtual machine.

I tried by installing open JDK from official website, same issue persisted.
Currently I installed java version 17 from IBM Developer .

The issue is still occurring .

The current java version I am using

That’s the Eclipse OpenJ9 virtual machine. The Jenkins project does not test with the Eclipse OpenJ9 virtual machine. We test with the Eclipse Temurin hotspot virtual machine.

Hello and welcome to this community, @adeelahmed11. :wave:

How did you install Jenkins on your machine? What is the version of Jenkins you’re running?
Could you please download the latest LTS war and try it on the command line with java -jar jenkins.war ?
Can you install the Temurin JDK and see if it gives a different output?
You can have several JDKs installed at the same time on your machine, I give a few hints about it in this blog post: A glimpse of the future .
