Jenkins 2.0 beta released

[Daniel Beck]

Hi everyone,

We released the Jenkins 2.0 beta earlier today. It includes basically everything we intent to ship in a few weeks as 2.0. A few features/changes didn't quite make it, and will be added in subsequent weekly releases.

To learn more about this release and download it, visit our shiny new site:
https://jenkins.io/2.0/

If you're filing issues in JIRA[1], please add the labels '2.0' and '2.0-beta' so we can easily find your report. Thanks!

Daniel

Before filing a bug, I am curious if others experience the same:

I was unable to start jenkins from the service file, but I could as java -jar /usr/lib/jenkins/jenkins.war

I did the following, basically following the normal install flow:

• clean install of CentOS 7.2
• yum upgrade -y
• yum install -y java
• yum install -y wget
• wget http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-rc/jenkins-2.0-1.1.noarch.rpm
• rpm -ivh jenkins-2.0-1.1.noarch.rpm
• service jenkins start

Checking /var/log/messages does say that Jenkins was started, but nothing can be found in the processlist.

However, doing a simple java -jar does seem to work.

Hi Daniel,

I am unable to see all the types as mentioned in 'New item'  , only few are coming. Do I need to install any specific extra plugins for the same.

What could be the issue of not getting any plugin details in Available page.

is there any documentation on how to use/explore Jenkins 2.0.

Please revert.

'New item'  contains  (as per jenkins site)):https://jenkins.io/images/2.0-create-item.png

Thanks,

Madan

Please edit /etc/sysconfig/jenkins to set JENKINS_AJP_PORT to -1 and retry.

We recently learned that the beta's RPM/Suse packages are broken. This is tracked as JENKINS-33776.

All of these types should be provided by the plugins available for selection during the initial setup wizard. Just select "All" when customizing your plugins from the provided list.

But please note that the screen shot shows off so far unreleased builds of some of these plugins -- if you do the above, there's a good chance more of the icons will look generic (i.e. with letters in front of colored balls).

Most of what's new in 2.0 is listed on the site[1]. We don't have full release notes yet. For Pipeline and related plugins we have documentation linked from its wiki page[2] to get you started.

> What could be the issue of not getting any plugin details in Available page.

Unclear what you mean. Jenkins should have an up-to-date list of plugins once you complete the initial setup. Try "Check Now" on the "Advanced" tab of the Plugin Manager.

Hello Madan,

That screenshot is only an example. Did you try to use the option
"Recommended plugins" in the install wizard?

Hello,

I have tried to run jenkins 2.0 with resin but without success. when I'm trying to open a main page I get the following error

WEB-INF/web.xml:30: <web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee">
is an unexpected top-level tag.

28:          xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd"
29:          version="3.1"
30:          metadata-complete="true">
31:   <display-name>Jenkins v2.0-alpha-4</display-name>
32:   <description>Build management system</description>

At the same time jenkins-1.x.war works fine. Resin implements Servlet 3.0 but Jenkins require 3.1. If I replace web.xml with 3.0 specification it seems to work.

So my question is - Does Jenkins 2.0 really using any of the 3.1 features (new classes, methods)?

Thanks in advance

I don't think we do, yet, but rather than add it in a regular weekly release in the future when we start to use these features, we decided to increase the system requirement now when there's a better chance people read the changelog.
