first you must be in the directory where the jenkins file is located and write the code by running cmd in that directory.

I had the same issue. What worked for me was adding .jar to the file name, like

java -jar jenkins.war.jar

in case that you face an error that says, "Failed to listen on port 8080" There is an answer here that worked for me, by pasting the following on cmd,

java -jar jenkins.war.jar --ajp13Port=-1 --httpPort=9090

Open Command Prompt as Administrator in Windows . Go to the directory where Jenkins is installed. and stop the Jenkins service first, using jenkins.exe stop

type the command to change the port using, java -jar jenkins.war

You will be able to access the .war file of Jenkins.

I also faced this issue after I updated the jenkins version.

The error message was found in <jenkins_dir>/jenkins.error.log

Resolved Step:

  1. Download your jenkins.war at https://updates.jenkins-ci.org/download/war/
  2. Put jenkins.war to your jenkins work directory
  3. Go Jenkins Service and restart it
  4. Enjoy it!

Command java -jar jenkins.war in Win7 command line require administrator permission.

Right click on the cmd icon and choose the Run as administrator option.

It worked for Windows 8 too.

Make sure you are executing that command in the folder where jenkins.war is actually installed.

Also check if the file is readable, and not preempted by another process (you can check that with Process Explorer)

Finally, double-check the size of jenkins.war, to see if the download was complete, and the file is not corrupted (incomplete or small size): see the list of jenkins.war released.
