Java jre and jdk should be installed.

Steps on ubuntu

wget -q -O - https://jenkins-ci.org/debian/jenkins-ci.org.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo deb http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian binary/ > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jenkins.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install jenkins

We could also use http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian-stable/jenkins-ci.org.key for the stable version

Github plug-in installation


Go to http://localhost:8080/pluginManager/
Search for github in the available plugins and install it.

Go to localhost:8080/safeRestart
or Go to localhost:8080/restart: which forces the restart even if build processes were in the BG
