X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication

[abaracedo]

Hi, there!

I'm upgrading from 4.0.1 to 12.4.0 and from cypress/base:10 to cypress/base:16.18.1.

When I run cypress open <url> I'm getting this error: X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. and I don't know why. Before upgrading the to the new image all was working fine and the GUI was opened.

My Dockerfile looks like:

FROM cypress/base:16.18.1

WORKDIR /app
ADD package.json .
ADD yarn.lock .

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install curl -y

RUN yarn install
RUN $(yarn bin)/cypress verify

ADD cypress.config.js /app

And the command I'm using to run through Docker is:

docker run --rm -d -ipc=host --net=host
-e DISPLAY
-e CYPRESS_baseUrl={url}
-v cypress:app/cypress
-v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw
-v /etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id
-v /home/ubuntu/.Xauthority:/root/.Xauthority
--entrypoint yarn image_name:version start

Hello @abaracedo
I think you need to check owner of /home/ubuntu/.Xauthority, because inside the container you use /root/.Xauthority under root user.

The thing is that the docker command works with the older image (cypress/base:10) it justs stopped working and throwing the auth error when changing it to cypress/base:16.18.1

Is it possible that something changed between the images, any dependency or setting?
