Tinderbox

Welcome to the Tinderbox wiki.

The goal for this wiki is to document the procedures and processes necessary to setup, run and keep running a Tinderbox server.

This wiki is titled "Tinderbox" instead of Tinderbox2 or Tinderbox3 as we should be able to document overall Tinderbox usage and, if necessary, flag any sections as being specific to that version of Tinderbox.

There is an excellant Overview and FAQ for Tinderbox in general here.

Tinderbox2

Ken Estes' page describing Tinderbox 2.0

Source

Tinderbox2 currently resides only in the Mozilla CVS Repostory. Be careful to only checkout the Tinderbox2 tree - otherwise you stand a good chance of retrieving the entire Mozilla source tree (and that's rather large.)

This is the cvs command to checkout only Tinderbox2: cvs -d pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co mozilla/webtools/tinderbox2

Setup and Configuration

The Install file located in the root of the Tinderbox2 source tree has an excellant overview of what is needed and the order to follow.
