Environment
Any of the products below in a Windows environment and version 2.204.1.3
Resolution
Version 2.204.1.3 cannot start on Windows: this release contains some filenames with ( or ,… which prevents from uncompressing the WAR file. As workaround just remove the licenses folder from the extracted folder created by the extraction of the WAR file. The extraction of the WAR file is automatically performed inside the $JENKINS_HOME under a directory called war. Removing the content of $JENKINS_HOME/war/license should be enough to workaround the issue. Note that the extraction of the WAR file can happen in a different directory in case you are using the property --webroot to change the default extraction directory.
