Notes

Build 1

Bootstrap Tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11

Setup before starting:

• Updated master.cfg, bootstrap.cfg. Retagged bootstrap.cfg.
• On the slaves:
  • ran 'DISPLAY=:0 xhost +' to make sure linux AliveTest works.
  • remove /builds/verify/firefox-3.0.1
  • update tinderbox to RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
    • For win32:

cd /e/builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox
cvs up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
for dir in fx19rel fx19l10nrel xr19rel; do 
  cd /e/$dir; 
  for f in `ls *.pl *.html INSTALL README | grep -v tinder-config.pl`; do 
    cp -pv /e/builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox/$f .;
  done
  cp -pv post-mozilla-rel.pl post-mozilla.pl
done

• • On the linux slave, removed:
    • /builds/updates/firefox-3.0.1 and /builds/updates/3.0.2-test
    • /builds/source/*
    • /data/cltbld/thunderbird-3.0a2*
  • On the mac slave, removed:
    • /builds/tinderbox/Tb-Mozilla1.9-Release/Darwin_8.8.4_Depend
    • /builds/tinderbox/Tb-Mozilla1.9-l10n-Release/Darwin_8.8.4_Depend
    • /builds/tinderbox/Xr-Mozilla1.9-Release/Darwin_8.8.4_Depend

• Space on slaves before starting:
  • fx-linux-1.9-slave2: 11G on /builds
  • fx-mac-1.9-slave2: 24G on /
  • fx-win32-1.9-slave2: 11G on d:, 2G on e: (disk heavy work is done on d, eg update_verify. build/repack is done on e, but mostly just overwrites existing data)

• Gulped, and kicked off automation:

buildbot sendchange --username=joduinn --master=localhost:9989 -m"Firefox 3.0.3build1 release" go

Tag

• Automated, no problems.

Source

• Automated, no problems.

Build & Repack

• mac: Automated, no problems.
• linux: build went fine, but then "AliveTest" failed because I missed the DISPLAY setting instruction above. This has not been done since the colo power outage a couple of days ago. Fixed missing DISPLAY, restarted build and this time linux build passed.
• win32: buildbot master crashed out during l10n repack. Manually restarted, patched master config to restart at win32 repack and continue onwards. This worked fine.

Sign

instructions

Signing failed out on 'de' with:

 Error: Invalid timestamp http address
 Error: TimeStampign Failed. Result = 80070001, (-2147024895)

To work-around, did the following (from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415966#c25):

mkdir signed-build6-partial unsigned-build6-partial
cp signed-build1/*en-US* signed-build1-partial/
cp unsigned-build1/*en-US* unsigned-build1-partial/
# copied everything from 'de' -> 'zh-TW' from unsigned-build1 to unsigned-build1-partial
perl ./signing/sign-release.pl -o signed-build${BUILD}-partial -M dir -d unsigned-build${BUILD}-partial -a ${PRODUCT} --release ${TAG} 2>&1 | tee -a win32_signing_build${BUILD}.log
# to merge the signed builds back together
mv signed-build6-partial/ signed-build6/

...and again when failed on 'fy'.

# then push the builds back to stage (instructions on the signing doc)

Resigning of af->fr (excluding en-US) =

When restarting signing we should've been calling sign-release.pl with '-p' to make sure the en-US doesn't get signed again. Unfortunately, the 3.0.2 build notes (where we first had to do this) did not get updated properly. To correct this, we had to resign af->fr so all locales + en-US have the same bits inside. To do so, did the following:

# delete af -> fr from signed-build1
cd ~/signing-work/firefox-3.0.3
cp signed-build1/*en-US* signed-build1-partial/
cp unsigned-build1/*en-US* unsigned-build1-partial/
# copied everything from af -> fr from unsigned-build1 to unsigned-build1-partial/
# NOTE THE '-p' ON THIS COMMAND
perl ./signing/sign-release.pl -o signed-build${BUILD}-partial -M dir -d unsigned-build${BUILD}-partial -a ${PRODUCT} --release ${TAG} -p 2>&1 | tee -a win32_signing_build${BUILD}.log
# to merge back together
mv signed-build1-partial/* signed-build1/
# to verify all of internals are signed the same, did:
mkdir ~/tmp
cd ~/tmp
cp ~/signing-work/firefox-3.0.3/signed-build1/*.exe .
for i in *.exe; do ~/signing-utils/7-zip/7z x $i && FOO=`md5sum nonlocalized/

firefox.exe | awk '{print $1}'` && echo $i: $FOO | tee -a sums.log && rm -rf no nlocalized localized optional removed-files.log setup.exe; done
