> Key: JENKINS-13530
> URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13530
> Project: Jenkins
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: current
> Environment: Windows XP.
> Reporter: Mike Caspar
> Labels: windows
>
> I've been having trouble with the JENKINS_HOME and think I've figured out a
> way around the problem, but at the same time, would like to report a problem
> with the BUNDLED download.
> At FIRST, I thought I was doing something wrong, but have confirmed the
> problem does NOT exist in the WAR that I install into my Tomcat 7 server.
> If I load the SETUP.EXE, when the SERVICE starts up, it simply IGNORED my
> System Environment variables completely. Nothing I do changes this.
> If I stop the service and download the WAR and load it into Tomcat it
> PROPERLY reads the Environment Variable and locates the appropriate folder.
> Again, the problem is only with the windows Service Installer from the
> Windows Setup.
> I have even set HUDSON_HOME (just in case).
> Thanks
> (wasn't sure if CORE was the right place to put this).
