Slave on HPUX Itanium

[Jim McCaskey]

Hello all,

I'm trying to start a Hudson slave using SSH on HPUX Itanium.

[12/10/10 12:59:42] [SSH] /opt/java6/bin/java -version returned 1.6.0.01.

I think this is documented here:

http://issues.hudson-ci.org/browse/HUDSON-6674

But again, no suggestions as to the fix/workaround.

I'm running Hudson 1.385. uname on the slave returns:

-bash-3.2$ uname -m -r -s -v
HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64

The server is Windows 2003 R2.

Any suggestions?

Jim,

Do you have to use Windows for hosting the master? You'd probably be better off using a unix box instead if you can.

Patrick,

Thanks for the response. Yea for now at least I'm stuck in the environment I'm in. I've had Hudson running for well over a year with Windows and Linux slaves with no problems (well, none that I have not worked around ;-) ). My long range (and by long I mean that list of stuff you have that never seems to get done) would have me migrate to Linux. So that's not an option at this point.

I should also note that there is a user in the Issue linked here:

http://issues.hudson-ci.org/browse/HUDSON-6674

That is running with a RHEL master, so I'm not sure migrating to Linux would solve the problem.
