As part of my pipeline, I need to launch Selenium server on a windows machine (which is a long-running process) and let the pipeline keep running. So I need to run a SSH command that will run the selenium server, but will not hang. I have SSH Server installed on the windows machine.

I’ve tried these methods, with no success:

1. ssh myuser@windows_host "powershell -Command "Start-Process 'java' '-jar selenium-server-standalone.jar' -NoNewWindow -RedirectStandardOutput 'C:\path\to\logfile.log' -RedirectStandardError 'C:\path\to\logfile.log'“”
2. ssh myuser@windows_host "start /B cmd /C 'java -jar selenium-server-standalone.jar > C:\path\to\logfile.log 2>&1'"

in both cases, my shell from where I run the SSH command returns, with no output. Also, the log files contains no content..

Any idea?
