Groovy Compilation error :Unrecognized Windows Sockets error

Question

Environment :
Jenkins Server (Linux)
Senkins slave agent (Windows )
Build :Gradle
Project : EasyB ,Selenium,Groovy

I am getting a compilation error while trying to compile my easyB + selenium project. We use gradle to manage the project.

The projects compiles fine on local desktop, but fails when we try to compile it via a Jenkins job - using a windows slave agent, it throws a compilation error. The error is bit cryptic- java.net.SocketException: Unrecognized Windows Sockets error: 10106: socket

Grails users have reported a similar problem- which they attributed to overuse of a port. But that cant be the case in this situation ?

I wonder if Gradle is trying to download stuff ? But that also doesn't make too much sense - since the compilation runs fine- if I run it when logged in directly to the windows slave agent machine.

It looks like that error is a WSAEPROVIDERFAILEDINIT error. From the link:

Service provider failed to initialize.
The requested service provider could not be loaded or initialized. This error is returned if either a service provider's DLL could not be loaded (LoadLibrary failed) or the provider's WSPStartup or NSPStartup function failed.

This might be caused by Java being launched by a wrapper, but not receiving all the correct environment variables:

A quick search over at Sun's Java site (for "10106") turned up this thread: "java.net.SocketException: Unrecognized Windows Sockets error: 10106: create" at http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp...hreadID=329241

The thread seems to suggest that your environment variable for "system root" might be incorrect, and that it needs to be reset. Or, as an alternative, you can set/select "Append Environment to Native Environment"

(Note, that link is dead, this one works though: Unrecognized Windows Sockets error: 10106: create)

So, I guess look into seeing how Jenkins is being launched.
