This is the error that always occurs to me when trying to run jenkins slave as a windows service and I dont really know what to do - nor do I find something about it.

Before I tried to run jenkins slave as normal "launch" and this error occured:

[EnvInject] - Loading node environment variables.

seems like no access rights - thats why I tried it with using the "as a service" installation, which in the documents should fix the problem with access rights, but it didn't

I do not have TestComplete installed on this computer, only TestExecute.

When I run the line C:\..... manually in the command line, it works and opens TestExecute and executes the needed Tests - from jenkins it does not

I would try the solution in this post:

well this solution is already done in my question. As the solution provided here is only to install jenkins as a service

[tristaanogre]

There are 3 potential solutions beyond just installing as a service.

On Windows 8 and later, TestComplete requires elevated permissions for the run. Jenkins that is run through the Java Web Start agent application, cannot start TestComplete with required permissions, and will cause the build step to fail if it tries.

To run tests under Windows 8 and later, do any of the following:

• Install the Java Web Start agent as a service. As a service, the agent has the required permissions and can start TestComplete. Make sure the "Run interactive user session" test step option is selected.

– or –

• Connect to the slave by using the "Let Jenkins control this Windows slave as a Windows service" launch method. Make sure the "Run interactive user session" test step option is selected.

– or –

• Disable support for testing Windows Store applications. With this option disabled, TestComplete can be run without elevated permissions.
