How is a slave on a Windows machine using a Tomcat instance on a Unix machine? For that matter, how is a slave using a Tomcat instance at all? Slaves aren’t servlets, just the Jenkins server is.
If you mean that the slave is running a job that interacts with a Tomcat instance, whether that can be done against the same instance as the Jenkins server depends on the job, not the slave. Even if the job is playing with the Tomcat instance that Jenkins in on, neither the slave nor the server will put two and two together and realize it’s operating on the same servlet container that the Jenkins server is on. Certainly, if the job is doing something like bouncing the Tomcat server that Jenkins is on, that will totally screw things up, as in the middle of the job, the slave will lose connectivity with Jenkins and probably die. --Rob From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Varghese Renny Sent: Monday, July 02, 2012 9:25 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: UnknownHost Exception with Linux master and window slave Problem is resolved.i get connection to slave using jnlp.
