Getting Started
Unlock Jenkins
To ensure the administrator securely sets up Jenkins,
a password has been written to the log (not sure where to find it?)
and this file on the server:
/Users/dev/.jenkins/secrets/initialAdminPassword
Please copy the password from either location and paste it below.
Administrator password
The solution is simple, all you need to do is to copy the path that is displayed on your Jenkins Page in Terminal as a cat command.
Example:% cat /Users/dev/.jenkins/secrets/initialAdminPassword
05b3f4xxb462428897bxx93045454xxf
The text which you see on your console is the Administrator password, simply paste it on the page and you should be in!
