As I understand, there are two ways to do the “Jenkins Setup Node App” task in Level 4 Jenkins. One way is to run the git and docker commands remotely from the jenkins/built-in node. The second way is to set up the App Server as an agent and run the commands locally. Both ways work just fine - pipeline succeeds and the app comes online. However, the task’s validation only accepts the second way - setting up the App Server as an agent and running the commands locally. It is not clear that the validation is expecting the second way. So, I just wanted to share this “gotcha” to save time of others who might be pulling their hair wondering why it is not working. Cheers!
Hi @nimanthanw,
Thank you very much for your feedback. I haven’t had a chance to test the first approach yet. If you’ve already tried it, could you please share the details of how you did it?
