Can't install Jenkins in OS-X <Error: Unable to access jarfile jenkins.war>

Question

I am trying to install Jenkins in my mac and i have followed this below steps:

1. Downloaded the Jenkins war file for OS-X

2. After cd , Ran this:

   java -jar jenkins.war

3. getting this error in my terminal:

   Error: Unable to access jarfile jenkins.war

Any idea what i am doing wrong??? FYI, I was successful in windows by following those steps.

Solution

Here how the issue got resolved. If you got mac or windows regardless,

1. go to jenkins-ci.org
2. Select long term support release which is a stable build.
3. Click on the link .war
4. Then in Terminal cd to that path where you downloaded
5. Run this command: java -jar jenkins.war

You are good to go!!!
