After server migration: can no log in

[Michael Renner]

Moin,

I migrated my single server instance from a i386 architecture to a modern AMD64 by executing the steps mentioned in

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8724939/how-to-move-jenkins-from-one-pc-to-another

So far I used "Unix user/group database" as Security Realm, with other words my local username and password.

While jenkins is operating perfect (and much faster) at the new server (even the executors are connected) I can not log in. No hint in the logfile /var/log/jenkins/jenkins.log.

Any hint how to keep going?

found the problem: User 'jenkins' needs to belong to group shadow to read /etc/shadowUser
