I don't get any error either.
Your "issue" is a Linux "issue", not a Jenkins one. Most likely the user "jenkins" doesn't have ha login shell, thus you can't log in. If you like to give/change his password however, you can always do this as root. The reason this is handled like this in Linux environment is mostly for security reasons.
