Hi Timo,

Do we need to stop jenkins services before run your command? I got this issue when ran:

hi,

stop your Jenkins service first by stopping it from services (in windows)
start --> search services Desktop app–>select Jenkins --> stop the service
and then start Jenkins as process

java -jar jenkins.war

Thank you Timo! The issue was fixed by your solution.

I’d like to add that this was very helpful. Thanks for the info Timo!

My Katalon runs on a Jenkins node and not the Jenkins master. Do I still need to run the Jenkins as a process on that VM even though my Katalon test is executing elsewhere? (My Jenkins won’t start with the war command so my install may be configured differently on windows…)

I run the node process as a “logged on user” and that should “interact with the desktop”, right?. Should that be enough to see the browser? I have to see the browser because the test uses sendKeys for basic auth and it doesn’t seem to work unless the browser is visible.

Do you have any additional documentation on Jenkins with Katalon?
