Description

We have quite a lot of jobs with spaces in the name since upgrading to the 1.14 version from the 1.11 version we encounter the following error:

Log:
Configuration for placing the xauthority file in node fs root

Added a configuration option to place the temporary xauthority file
on the fs root of the node instead of the in the build's workspace.
This can be used as a workaround for JENKINS-19139 if the path to
the fs root doesn't contain any spaces but for example the folder
to the job does.

Fix/report that bug in vncserver

…and did anyone ever actually do that? If so, is there a link? Status of fix in various distributions?

Should this be assigned to rsandell who is apparently working on a fix in https://github.com/jenkinsci/xvnc-plugin/pull/8 ?

Log:
Alternate placing of the xauthority file

A workaround for JENKINS-19139.
If the workspace path contains spaces it will try to put the file
in the slave fs root, and if that path also contains spaces it will
try to put it in java.io.tmpdir.

Maybe my search foo is a bit off but I haven't manage to find the project page or the issue tracker for that package when I researched the issue.

Not lazy people do this always. Also i don't see what linux distro was used because vncserver has different implementations.

for hacks on jenkins side instead upstream fixes.
