I am using jenkins in order to build my projects on my digitalocean droplet. I recently got an error when i was trying to use ssh to check on my droplet. i am unable to use su command to change user on my droplet,



this is the output i get,
<code>su jenkins</code> reroutes to root and anything i type is hidden



su jenkins reroutes to root and anything i type is hidden. and when i run whoami i get root as the response. Is there any solution for this. i already tried restarting the droplet, but i am getting the same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.



Thanks.
