Jenkins searching for cygwin

[Arvind Kumar]

Hi,

I have installed jenkins master as unix. 

But i need to run slave as windows where i will build my project using batch script.

Using "launch slave agent via java web start" i have been able to connect windows slave to Jenkins Master runing on unix machine.

But error comes while pulling/cloning the code from mercurial repository.

why it is trying to fine cygwin? 

ERROR: Failed to clone https://hg-vm01.genesyslab.com/htcc
hudson.util.IOException2: Failed to locate Cygwin installation. Is Cygwin installed?

I dont want to to install cygwin due to some issues. Is it possible to do this without cygwinn, if yes how? 

Thanks,

Arvind

Install TortoiseHG on Windows slave, create a new Mercurial definition for it in Jenkins global configuration and reference that definition in your Windows job.

HTH...

Did you configure the plugin as described on https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Mercurial+Plugin ?

Hi,

why not using the Mercurial plugin of Jenkins

Kind regards
