How to run jenkins slave on windows 2012 r2 x64?

Question

We want to use jenkins to build some specific software on Windows 2012 R2 x64. But when I trying to run it, master node fails whis this error:

Connecting to 192.168.1.27
Checking if Java exists
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_30\bin\java.exe -version returned 1.6.0.

and I don't know what is wrong.

Yes, I've read this carefully.

upd. ok. I removed server from domain. Now jenkins says:

    Registering the service
    Starting the service
    Waiting for the service to become ready
    ERROR: The service did not respond. Perhaps it failed to launch? 

In EventViewer I see:

I had the same issue on on Windows 2012 R2 x64:

    ... 7 more

and have found out, that jenkins slave to be run as a service requires to have .net 3.x installed (which is not by default on win2012 servers).

After having the 3.5 .net framework installed jenkins slave service got installed without issues (and the server remained in domain).

To not loose time in case you'd hit problems while installing 3.5 framework as I did, refer to this SO answer: Offline installer for .Net 3.5 SP1 not working (disabling the WSUS helped me to get the installation through)

Answer 2

I had this issue:

Service cannot be started. System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The system cannot find the file specified at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreateProcess(ProcessStartInfo startInfo) at winsw.WrapperService.StartProcess(Process process, String arguments, String executable) at winsw.WrapperService.OnStart(String[] _) at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.ServiceQueuedMainCallback(Object state)

And the problem went away when i changed Path to java executable from :

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\javaw

to

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\java

I think 'w' is appended by JENKINS anyway.
