Description Kim Moir CLA 2009-12-08 17:47:29 EST
This bug will capture the results of testing running JUnits on the Hudson slave that Matt and Denis set up for us for testing.

-Hudson slave was set up with ssh keys
-architecture is linux.gtk.x86_64
-modified test scripts and binaries copied since we just usually test on linux.gtk.x86
-tested running headless tests
-need to own the display to run ui tests or emulate it

So the hudson slave has a different location for vnc than on the master.

master 
/usr/X11R6/bin/vncserver

slave
/usr/bin/vncserver

So the vnc startup fails on the slave because hudson tries to restart it in the wrong location.

I couldn't find anything on the slave configuration to override this.  The only per machine options are for Ant, JDKs, environment variables etc.

Could you create a link on the slave so /usr/X11R6/bin/vncserver points to /usr/bin/vncserver

Hello webmasters, 

I can't seem to ssh to the slave right now.  I was able to earlier today but now I can't - it just times out. Could you please check its network connection.

It seems ok now.

-M.

Closing. This machine was removed, will test again when new hardware is installed.
