Executors not starting with Jenkins on Google Container Engine

9/4/2017

I want to try out continuous deployment with Jenkins on Google Container Engine.

I have gone through https://cloud.google.com/solutions/jenkins-on-container-engine-tutorial and then https://cloud.google.com/solutions/continuous-delivery-jenkins-container-engine.

I have done it all twice to make sure I didn't miss anything in the tutorials, but still I have the same problem. The problem is in the second tutorial, under the section "Creating a Jenkins job". I follow all the steps, but my build job never starts. All I get in Jenkins is Waiting for next available executor.

Do you have any ideas what is wrong?

Things started working once I added jnlp here:

Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> Cloud -> Kubernetes -> Defaults Provider Template Name
