First check your capistrano installation location and Jenkins pointing location are same or not, seems to be Jenkins user is not having permission to run the capistrano, When you are running without Jenkins you are giving su Jenkins command to switch the user, try without su command, if it is not running as expected you can consider it is a permission issue , then add Jenkins user into same admin group. then it will work.

Although su switches user, by default su doesn't set its environment variables. To do so execute su -.

From your description it sounds that some root/jenkins variables might be the problem.

Try running su - jenkins. If this won't work, that would at least confirm issue.
