[JIRA] (JENKINS-14621) When connecting Windows slave error is not seen in the log

[ra...@java.net (JIRA)]

Krzysztof Malinowski created JENKINS-14621 When connecting Windows slave error is not seen in the log Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Components: core Created: 30/Jul/12 8:59 AM Description: I try to connect Windows slave through WMI infrastructure. The log goes up to this: Connecting to <computer-name> Checking if Java exists java full version "1.7.0_05-b05" Copying jenkins-slave.xml Copying slave.jar Starting the service The spinning wheel goes on and on. When I go back to list of nodes the starting node has a red X, so I go in and see that launching the slave has failed. When I see the log it still shows up the same "Starting the service" message. It would be good to log some message at this node startup log that the startup has failed, otherwise one may waste quite a long time waiting for the service. Environment: Jenkins 1.475 on RHEL5 x86_64, Windows XP slave Project: Jenkins Priority: Minor Reporter: Krzysztof Malinowski
