Initial Setup and Account Creation
- Change the resolution to 1024 x 768, 60 Hz, Millions of Colours, under System Preferences->Displays (this is changed later)
- Change the password for the administrator user to the standard build system root password.
- Create a new admin-equiv account for the cltbld user using the standard build password.
- Under System Preferences->Sharing->Screen Sharing->Computer Settings change the VNC screen control password to the standard build password. NOTE: your VNC session will drop when you do this. You'll need to reconnect with the new password.
- If the hostname is wrong, e.g. unused-*, use
sudo scutil --set HostName new.hostname.mozilla.orgto fix it. NOTE: you'll need to restart the machine for this to fully take effect. - Under System Preferences->Software Update, turn off automatic update checking.
- Using the Workgroup Manager, open the Preferences pane for the cltbld user. Under Software Update, set Manage: to Always, and set the Software Update server to use: as http://bm-xserve01.build.mozilla.org:8088/ - NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT
Installing Xcode
- Mount the Xcode disk image, and begin installing the XcodeTools.mpkg.
- A standard install is fine (we don't need 10.3.9 support or WebObjects).
- Make sure to install the 10.5 SDK, as it is not installed by default.
- CHUD is now installed by default
Installing wget
curl ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/wget/wget-1.10.2.tar.gz > wget-1.10.2.tar.gz tar -zvxf wget-1.10.2.tar.gz cd wget-1.10.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr make sudo make install
Installing MacPorts
- Install MacPorts-1.8.2 and the following MacPorts packages...
- mercurial
- libidl
- autoconf213
Nagios
- Copy over the appropriate package from bm-admin01, either nrpe-darwin-i386.tar.gz or nrpe-darwin-powerpc.tar.gz depending on your platform.
- Create a nagios user and group
sudo dscl localhost -create /Local/Default/Users/nagios sudo dscl localhost -create /Local/Default/Users/nagios UserShell /usr/bin/false sudo dscl localhost -create /Local/Default/Users/nagios UniqueID 510 sudo dscl localhost -create /Local/Default/Groups/nagios sudo dscl localhost -create /Local/Default/Groups/nagios UniqueID 1010
- Unpack the package in /usr/local. Eg,
cd /usr/local && sudo tar xfz ~cltbld/nrpe-darwin-i386.tar.gz
- Edit/checkout nrpe.cfg. The one in mozilla/tools/nagios/nrpe-mac.cfg may be useful.
- Run enablenrpe to turn it on
sudo /usr/local/nagios/sbin/enablenrpe
Ask IT to setup the suite of checks.
Puppet
wget http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.24.8.gem sudo gem install puppet-0.24.8.gem
ssh
scp the cltbld and appropriate role keys over directly from a machine that already has them installed. In .ssh, make sure the cltbld keys are called cltbld* and not id_dsa*, then symlink
ln -s cltbld_dsa id_dsa ln -s cltbld_dsa.pub id_dsa.pub
This is temporary to get hold of the standard .profile (we should move that file to public cvs).
ENV setup
cvs -d :ext:cltbld@cvs.mozilla.org:/mofo co release/tinderbox-configs/host ln -s release/tinderbox-configs/host/mac-osx-profile .profile
...at which point you'll probably want to restart your shell to use the new .profile.
switch to role key
In ~/.ssh,
rm id_dsa id_dsa.pub ln -s ffxbld_dsa id_dsa ln -s ffxbld_dsa.pub id_dsa.pub
or substitute ffxbld for whatever key is appropriate for what you will be building.
Establish initial ssh connections and accept keys
Execute the following simple ssh calls to connect to the ftp server (stage), symbol server (if different from ftp), and update server so that the various pieces of the build can be uploaded automatically by the build scripts when needed:
ssh ffxbld@stage.mozilla.org pwd ssh ffxbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org pwd ssh ffxbld@hg.mozilla.org ssh ffxbld@dm-symbolpush01.mozilla.org pwd
Mail config
NB: Postfix config is tinderbox client specific, all the buildbot information goes over a socket to the master and is posted to the tinderbox server from there.
You'll need to update the postfix config to make sure that myhostname is set correctly and that large messages can be sent. The tail of /etc/postfix/main.cf should look similar to:
myhostname = bm-xserve16.build.mozilla.org mailbox_transport = cyrus
# Allow large messages (unlimited size, required for tinderbox) message_size_limit = 0
You'll then want to restart postfix to pick up the changes.
Also make sure that Mail.app is installed.
ntp config
sudo su -
echo "server ntp1.build.mozilla.org iburst" > /etc/ntp.conf
kill -2 `ps x | grep ntp | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
exit
Buildbot
Make directories
mkdir -p /tools/dist/logs mkdir -p /builds/logs
Install Python 2.6.4
NB: 2.5.* would not compile in either 32bit or 64bit environments. gcc-4.0 complained about -Wno-long-double and gcc-4.2 did not provide all of the posix environment
cd /tools/dist wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.4/Python-2.6.4.tar.bz2 tar jxvf Python-2.6.4.tar.bz2 cd Python-2.6.4 ./configure --prefix=/tools/python --enable-framework=/tools/python --with-universal-archs=intel --enable-universalsdk=/ make make test make install
export PATH="/tools/python/bin:$PATH"
Installing Twisted
cd /tools/dist wget http://tmrc.mit.edu/mirror/twisted/Twisted/2.4/Twisted-2.4.0.tar.bz2 tar xfvj Twisted-2.4.0.tar.bz2 cd Twisted-2.4.0 cd ZopeInterface-3.1.0c1 python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install cd .. python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/tools/python
Installing Buildbot
cd /tools/dist cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -d buildbot mozilla/tools/buildbot cd buildbot python2.5 setup.py install sudo python2.5 setup.py install
Installing PyYAML
cd /tools/dist wget http://pyyaml.org/download/pyyaml/PyYAML-3.05.tar.gz tar -zvxf PyYAML-3.05.tar.gz cd PyYAML-3.05 python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
Final Configuration
Set the required Python environment variables in the Buildbot's user profile
echo 'export PATH="/opt/local/bin:/tools/buildbot/bin:/tools/python/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile
Current Changes for Compile
Currently the configs/mozilla2-staging/macosx/mozilla-central/nightly/mozconfig needs to have the universal mozconfig import removed:
sed -i -e "s/. \$topsrcdir\/build\/macosx\/universal\/mozconfig//" build/.mozconfig
Copy fonts from another Mac
cd /Library/Fonts sudo rsync -av cltbld@moz2-darwin9-slave01:/Library/Fonts/ ./
Set dock size
defaults write com.apple.dock tilesize -int 49; killall Dock
(until a fix is in for bug 470420)
Symlink for autoconf
NB: I went to make this change but saw that there was already an autoconf213 binary at /opt/local/bin
Due to calling in RepackFactory to command=['bash', '-c', 'autoconf-2.13'] to fix this we have to add a symlink to autoconf213
sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/autoconf213 /opt/local/bin/autoconf-2.13
