Install Jenkins in OpenShift from Docker Image

We have tried to install Jenkins in OpenShift 4.3 from the Docker jenkins/jenkins:lts image. When navigating to the route URL, all that is presented is:

Jenkins-Agent-Protocols: JNLP4-connect, Ping
Jenkins-Version: 2.222.3
Jenkins-Session: <redacted>
Client: <redacted>
Server: <redacted>
Remoting-Minimum-Version: 3.14

In the log file, there is a message:

Jenkins initial setup is required. An admin user has been created and a password generated.
Please use the following password to proceed to installation:

<redacted>

This may also be found at: /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword

What do we do with this password and how do we do the initial setup?

I ran into the same issue deploying the jenkins/jenkins:lts image on Openshift. I noticed that the Route that was automatically create, was for the agent port (5000) not the admin console UI port (8080). So I manually created another Route that points to the UI port (8080), and this worked.

Note: Once you get to the UI, you can use that initialization password you saw in the logs.

Here is the link to jenkins setup doc https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/ I would suggest you go through and understand about the initialAdminPassword.

After generating this password, the doc suggests to go to localhost:8080. You should use the {ip for your docker instance}:8080 to see the setup screen of jenkins using a browser. It is pretty straightforward from there.
