Jenkins slave not working on mesos

Question

I'm using the jenkins mesos plugin for CI. Initially, I followed the following tutorial: http://www.ebaytechblog.com/2014/05/12/delivering-ebays-ci-solution-with-apache-mesos-part-ii/

but the jenkins itself was not being setup via this. (I got error could not load config.xml file, even there was one)

Then I followed https://rogerignazio.com/blog/scaling-jenkins-mesos-marathon/ , and I was able to run jenkins master (jenkin framework/scheduler), but when I define the scripts to run, the jenkins-slaves are not being created. I think I'm missing some configuration regarding slaves. Can you tell me, what's the reason that the slaves are not being created to run jobs.

On the jenkins build page, I'm getting :

(pending—Waiting for next available executor)

And in the jenkins-logs, i'm getting following error:

Edit: I think I'm getting error, because I've not defined any container port mappings. Can anyone tell me how to do so?

Update : Actually there were many problems with 0.7 version of mesos plugin. So, I simply downgraded to 0.6 version.

Answer 1

For port mappings on marathon have a look here.

Hope this helps!
