I have installed the latest Allure plugins in Jenkins server. That specific code when it tries to generate allure report, it has thrown me the following error```

[Pipeline] { (Generate Report)

are you sure you did all the research necessary?

I ask because “Unable to auto-install JDK until the license is accepted” is a pretty clear error message to me and easily researchable.

I had seen this message but I have java installed on the Jenkins server and it is throwing NullPointerException.  
Do allure plugin do java installation. I am not sure why it is trying to do java installation

Hello @vinod and welcome to this community! 👋

I guess you’re running an Oracle JDK…  
My quick and dirty workaround would be to use an OpenJDK build…
