Jenkins not able to access java : localhost jenkins[807]: Starting Jenkins bash: /usr/bin/java: Permission denied

问题

I have installed and configured jenkins on the centos 7.I have added valid java path i.e "/usr/bin/java" in the file /etc/init.d/jenkins.

Below are the java path detils:

lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 22 Dec 24  2015 java -> /etc/alternatives/java

Now, on running "service jenkins start" command from root user, I am getting below error.

● jenkins.service - LSB: Jenkins Continuous Integration Server
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/jenkins)

Jul 13 18:25:51 localhost systemd[1]: Unit jenkins.service entered failed state.
Jul 13 18:25:51 localhost systemd[1]: jenkins.service failed.

I am not able to figure out why it's giving me permission denied even though every user having access to the java path.

also on running "journalctl -xe" command it shows below log:

Jul 13 18:45:33 localhost systemd[1]: Unit jenkins.service entered failed state.
Jul 13 18:45:33 localhost systemd[1]: jenkins.service failed.

Is it like that the Jenkins service does't having permission to access the java path? if not why it's giving that error?

回答1:

You have two options to solve the problem.

Jenkins service is started by jenkins user. The error says that jenkins user does not have permission to run java. So check orginal java path and give execute permissions to other users.
In jenkins.service unit file, change the owner of the service. Replace User=jenkins with User=root

回答2:

The default user of service jenkins is "jenkins". So "jenkins" may not have the pemission to access service "java". So we need to change the use of service jenkins. From the jenkins service boost script "/etc/init.d/jenkins". We can get the config file path, such as "/etc/sysconfig/jenkins"

回答3:

Try changing the file, /etc/init.d/jenkins Specifically look for the JENKINS_USER key and try replacing jenkins with root.

This worked for me on RHEL.
