issue making Windows slave (Java 7) connect to Linux master (Java 8)

Question

Facing issue making windows slave connect to Linux master. Linux master is on Java 8 and windows slave is on java 7. I tried connecting via launching slave agent on slave machine, it shows connected for a second but next second it says terminated.

On Connecting from console, below are the logs :

Is there any thing I can check.

Followed all steps given in below link: Showing exception while connecting slave to master using headless jnlp

Answer 1

I believe this was happening due to java version difference.
