I'd been out of Jenkins for over 3 years. Thanks for this excellent tutorial that gets me back in the seat so fast.
Congrats for your great tutorial ! It is perfect for Jenkins 2 on Ubuntu 16.04 with Apache 2 as reverse proxy. Other tutorials on the web do not include the reverse proxy, or do it wrong. Here we have the proper commands and setup. Thanks!
Just a comment: since some plugins such as sonar require JDK 8, I tested your tutorial with JDK 8 just using the command "sudo apt-get install default-jdk -y" in the first step instead. It works properly !!
At the step, apt-get install jenkins, I am getting the following message:
Package jenkins is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source.
Amazing walkthrough! Helped me a lot! Thanks!
Thanks for the tutorial. How do you determine what your ServerName is in the jenkins.conf file?
