Jenkins Configuration File : jenkins.xml
Jenkins Configuration File
Jenkins Configuration file: jenkins.xml is used to configure the Jenkins instance when it is run as a Windows service. This file specifies various JVM options, HTTPS setup, and environment variables needed for Jenkins to run properly on the Windows operating system.
By default, your Jenkins runs at https://localhost:8080/. You can change this by editing the configuration file in your installation directory. This file is also where you can change other boot configuration parameters.
To edit this configuration file, it’s recommended to stop the Jenkins service and edit the file. To edit, open the jenkins.xml file in a text editor and make necessary changes to it. After the file changes, then start the service.
