I am using `Java 1.6_45` and I installed java using `.bash_profile`
and when I run `java -version` I get 
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)

I also modified the .bash_profile under super user. I have change all the permission to 775 recursively of java folder.

but still I am getting the above issue. Can any one please guide me to address this problem.

Answer 1

If Jenkins is running as a non-root user, then the most likely problem is that the permissions on the java executable (or a parent directory) are incorrect.

If Jenkins is running as root (that is a bad idea!) then my guess is that this is a problem with SELinux access control.

Answer 2

That is clearly states it is a permission issue.

When you develop the code on windows machine and do the builds on the jenkins (which is linux or ubuntu).

Run this command on Git Bash to change the permissions

git update-index --chmod=+x some_shell_script.sh

Here x grant the execute permissions

Then do the git push
