Issue with Jenkins installation in aws ec2 linux

Hi,

I am unable to install jenkins in aws linux ec2.

Hey @teja_2022

I am not an expert here. But I see one obvious thing:

  • Minimum JDK version for Jenkins should be Java 11 or 17 assuming you are using the latest version. Refer this doc: Java requirements.

Also if you run systemctl status jenkins and paste the logs here (as stated in your screenshot), it would be easier for community to help you.

Really thanks for your fast reply.

I am installing jenkins as per the videos I refer and bsed on the below commands,

sudo yum update -y
sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel
java -version

jenkins installation
step 1 - sudo wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat/jenkins.repo
step 2 - sudo rpm --import https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat/jenkins.io.key
step3 - sudo amazon-linux-extras install epel
step 4 - sudo yum install jenkins -y
Step 5

sudo systemctl start jenkins
sudo systemctl enable jenkins
sudo systemctl status jenkins

all videos are showing to install java 1.8. Can you please help me in this

Hi @teja_2022
this tutorial may help you Jenkins on AWS

If you are installing lastest jenkins you absolutely need java 11

You can install older versions (not recommended) or use java 11
