          [JENKINS-30003] VncRecorder is missing Log4j method, build with wrong version of log4j.

          Fixed in 1.24: added explicit log4j dependency in pom.xml .

          I have manually download the plugin (1.24) from https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/VncRecorder+Plugin and install it manually, but the error is already occurs.
          It seams that something already goes wrong in the classes.jar method signatures..

          Sorry, I took a wrong Jenkins version for my final test. It should work now - in 1.25.

          Perfekt, it now works.
          In the time I've build my own version an change the saving format to flv.
          .flv have a better support in several viewers and do not have the 22 minutes limitation of swf (http://www.unixuser.org/~euske/vnc2swf/pyvnc2swf.html). It could be a gut idea to make the output flie format konfigureable.
          Thanks for your works!

          "It could be a gut idea to make the output flie format konfigureable."
          I agree - I'll take it into my TODO list for the next version.
