I hate to add a "me too" - but we're seeing this exact same thing with our first CentOS7 slave.
Our jenkins master is running 2.155 on a CentOS5 base. It runs mock C5 builds right on itself, but has no problem connecting to another CentOS5 slave to build android stuff (and has connected to windows slaves to build blackberry things in the long ago past). It seems like the node is configured and connecting okay - at least there is a "slave.jar" process running on the new CentOS7 slave. Only when we try to execute the job do I see this: Started by user Brent Harsh <http://jenkins.velleros.com:8080/user/bharsh> Building remotely on CentOS7 Node <http://jenkins.velleros.com:8080/computer/CentOS7 Node> (centos7) in workspace /usr/lib/jenkins/workspace/VAST-develop-centos7 Also: hudson.remoting.Channel$CallSiteStackTrace: Remote call to CentOS7 Node at hudson.remoting.Channel.attachCallSiteStackTrace(Channel.java:1741) at hudson.remoting.UserRequest$ExceptionResponse.retrieve(UserRequest.java:357) at hudson.remoting.Channel.call(Channel.java:955) at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:1089) at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:1078) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.gitclient.Git.getClient(Git.java:137) at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.createClient(GitSCM.java:821) at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.createClient(GitSCM.java:812) at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.checkout(GitSCM.java:1180) at hudson.scm.SCM.checkout(SCM.java:504) at hudson.model.AbstractProject.checkout(AbstractProject.java:1208) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractBuildExecution.defaultCheckout(AbstractBuild.java:574) at jenkins.scm.SCMCheckoutStrategy.checkout(SCMCheckoutStrategy.java:86) at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractBuildExecution.run(AbstractBuild.java:499) at hudson.model.Run.execute(Run.java:1815) at hudson.model.FreeStyleBuild.run(FreeStyleBuild.java:43) at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:97) at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:429) java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfoFile at sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo.getTimeZone(ZoneInfo.java:589) at java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone(TimeZone.java:560) at java.util.TimeZone.setDefaultZone(TimeZone.java:666) at java.util.TimeZone.getDefaultRef(TimeZone.java:636) at java.util.TimeZone.getDefault(TimeZone.java:625) at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.initializeCalendar(SimpleDateFormat.java:657) at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.<init>(SimpleDateFormat.java:601) at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.<init>(SimpleDateFormat.java:580) at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.JVM.<clinit>(JVM.java:147) at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.util.CompositeClassLoader.<clinit>(CompositeClassLoader.java:56) at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.<init>(XStream.java:411) at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.<init>(XStream.java:378) at hudson.util.XStream2.<init>(XStream2.java:112) at hudson.ProxyConfiguration.<clinit>(ProxyConfiguration.java:306) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:264) at com.sun.proxy.$Proxy8.<clinit>(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:423) at java.lang.reflect.Proxy.newProxyInstance(Proxy.java:739) at hudson.remoting.RemoteInvocationHandler.wrap(RemoteInvocationHandler.java:167) at hudson.remoting.Channel.export(Channel.java:768) On Thursday, October 25, 2018 at 9:58:36 AM UTC-4, Maciej wrote: > > I have exactly the same issue with RHEL 7.1 as jenkins node...
