# Installation Guide

docker
Prerequisites

Setup Steps

docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 --restart=on-failure -v jenkins_home:/var/jenkins_home jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk21

Run the Jenkins Docker container with a persistent volume attached.

Key Commands

docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 --restart=on-failure -v jenkins_home:/var/jenkins_home jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk21

Creates and runs a container from the Jenkins Docker image.

docker exec myjenkins cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword

Retrieves the initial admin password from inside the running Jenkins container.

It is recommended to use Docker volumes instead of host bind mounts to avoid file permission issues.
