Before anything else, have you tried running from the command line with the same command?
If you want a clean JENKINS_HOME, but want to maintain you jobs, you can just copy the JENKINS_HOME\jobs directory to another location (or even better, just backup JENKINS_HOME to somewhere else) and then delete JENKINS_HOME and reinstall. You should be able to copy the jobs back over to the new JENKINS_HOME. slide On Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 5:31 AM, Roland Zwaga <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey there, > > I just did an automatic upgrade using the webinterface to version 1.471 but > after the upgrade the windows service no longer wants to start ;( > > When checking the event log all I can find is this: > Child process [2848 - C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_29\jre\bin\java -Xrs > -Xmx786m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar > "C:\Program Files\Jenkins\jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080] terminated with 1 > > No other error logs are being filled as far as I can see... > > When I try to start the service manually I get this error almost > immediately: > > "Windows could not start the Jenkins service on Local Computer. > Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a > timely fashion." > > Anyone else here run into a problem like this? > > If all else fails, I guess I'll have to re-install Jenkins completely... ;( > So, my other question would be: Are there any tutorials or blogposts I could > check out that describe how to copy a complete configuration for a Jenkins > setup (so Jobs, plugins, etc) > > > thanks a lot in advance for any kind of help! > > cheers, > > Roland -- Website: http://earl-of-code.com
