VncRecoder sometimes, actually quite often crashes due to error in 3rd-party lib vnc2video
"We" - foundation with BIG help from Duy, Luong - were trying hard to fix / stabilize VncRecorder which which seemed to fail very arbitrary.
While we did fixed some stuff on our side - see MGNLTEST-425, SAASTEST-91 - we also figured that the even if the setup is fine ...
- VncRecorder starts up properly and may do a recording ..
- But at some point arbitrary it just crashes
This can be clearly observed in Jenkins build log, where we run a docker ps directly after spinning up docker ...
and before grepping its log-file to save it as vnc.log of the corresponding build.
Apparently vnc2video is not maintained anymore.
There is an issue report on the project with a PR to fix
the bug.
-> https://github.com/amitbet/vnc2video/issues/11
We may want to fork the project, apply the PR and see whether it increases the stability of the VncRecorder
docker image of "our" vncRecorder:
