I am unable to start the jenkins after installation is completed . If i am trying to start i am getting below error :
Job for jenkins.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See “systemctl status jenkins.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details.
Can anyone please help me out on this
If you are trying to install Jenkins on Ubuntu, you can refer to their official documentation for the prerequisites, mainly java version for installing Jenkins. Make sure you fulfill the requirements and then proceed with the installation steps provided there.
Regards.
Hi @Santosh_KodeKloud , I am trying to install Jenkins on Amazon linux Kernel Version 5.10, i have installed Java 17 version before jenkins installation . Even though getting the below error :
[root@ip-172-31-20-133 ~]# systemctl start jenkins
Job for jenkins.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See “systemctl status jenkins.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details.
How are you trying to do the install? Please tell us a bit about that. If you’re using a binary, it’s likely that configuration for systemd is not part of that package. So are you doing that, or are you using an RPM via yum or dnf?
i am doing yum install jenkins -y after that i gave systemctl start jenkins
What do the logs tell you about Jenkins’ failed status?
journalctl -u jenkins
It came as below : - Logs begin at Mon 2024-10-07 19:16:42 UTC, end at Mon 2024-10-07 19:25:01 UTC. –

You say you’ve installed Java 17. Here’s what worked for me:
yum install java-17-amazon-corretto
I installed jenkins using the instructions from the Jenkins page for a LTS release on a RedHat flavored distribution.
This works. I opened up port 8080 on the security group for the instance; once I run systemctl start jenkins, jenkins is indeed running.
Hi @rob_kodekloud ,
yesterday i have given below command for java 17 installation : sudo yum install java-17-amazon-corretto -y
Rest all i have followed the same process as you did , but i got error . Now i have again tried by giving the command you mentioned it worked for me and i was able to start jenkins . Thank you so much .
