Hello, I am running Linux Ubuntu and want to run a Jenkins CI server there. I've got Jenkins installed and I believe JENKINS_USER configured as "jenkins" (or my user for Jenkins).
However, when I pull up the host:8080 web page for the first time, I get /root permission issues. It's starting as root not as the jenkins user. So something about it isn't right or needs adjusting. When I stop/start the service, I've also observed that the credential under which I give the command appears <error> Unable to create the home directory '/root/srcb/JENKINS'. This is most likely a permission problem. To change the home directory, use JENKINS_HOME environment variable or set the JENKINS_HOME system property. See Container-specific documentation for more details of how to do this. </error> I do have JENKINS_HOME set to ~/srcb/JHENKINS, with srcb being a symbolic link to a second volume (separate VM-related issue). Seems to work okay from a Linux admin standpoint. What else do you need to know? It's running standalone, which I think is the java-applet right? Something like that. That's sufficient AFAIK unless I need to configure it as more of a service, like through Apache or something. Any advice for setting up on Linux? Thank you.
