Jenkins

[D.P.]

Hi!
I've installed Jenkins (according to: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-jenkins-on-ubuntu-18-04/ ) on lxc unprivilaged container. Jenkins starts and after few seconds died. The status is:

root@jenkins:/etc# systemctl status jenkins
● jenkins.service - LSB: Start Jenkins at boot time
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/jenkins; generated)
   Active: active (exited) since Wed 2019-03-20 13:23:33 CET; 48s ago

This solution https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/real-ulimit-value-for-lxc-containers.29798/ doesn't work.
Any suggestions.

maybe the lines are not the reason it dies, check the logs (journal/jenkins logs)

File /var/log/jenkins/jenkins.log is empty.

Did you ever figure this out? I needed Jenkins to access CIFS network shares, so I tried a privileged container. My entire proxmox server would hang every time I started the LXC.

I switched it to a virtual machine and Jenkins runs fine there.
