[JIRA] (JENKINS-16273) Slaves forbidden to request JNLP anonymously but no clear way to pass API token

[tg...@verizon.net (JIRA)]

Trevor A commented on JENKINS-16273 Slaves forbidden to request JNLP anonymously but no clear way to pass API token @Pei-Tang, @Jesper: For what it's worth, we found that the Windows service install wasn't broken per se but that it failed if the service already existed. We were able to log onto one of our Windows build servers, manually uninstall the service, rename or delete jenkins-slave.exe and jenkins-slave.xml, reboot the system, and then successfully reinstall the service by logging in as an admin, downloading the .jnlp file, and using the Java WebStart to install it. However, even after reinstalling the service the build slave was unable to register with master server because the service was trying to retrieve the the .jnlp from the master each time it started and was being denied. I have not tried manually running the .jnlp file outside the browser and installing as suggested above.
