I have installed Jenkins ver. 1.482 on an ubuntu machine and added a slave on another Ubuntu machine. Under "Jenkins ->Configuration" I have added jdk5, jdk6 and jdk7 and checked install from java.sun.com.
Some of the jobs run on the slave needs to be build with jdk5 so in the relevant job configuration I specify jdk5 (which I have specified in theglobal configuration). But on my slave I only have jdk7 and jdk6 in /usr/lib/jvm. Is the jdk specification on the master passed to the slave or will it only work if I also installed jdk5 on my slave? Currently the jdk5 job fails if I specify jdk5 in the job configuration - even though it build fine locally with jdk5. -- View this message in context: http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/Inheriting-JDK-installations-from-master-on-slave-tp4641292.html Sent from the Jenkins users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
