Build 1

  • Clobbered with "Any master/any release/any builder"

  • tagged buildbot-configs on "production" branch with FIREFOX_3_6_14_BUILD1 and FIREFOX_3_6_14_RELEASE
  • merge to production
  • updated /tools/buildbotcustom/buildbotcustom, /builds/buildbot/configs, and /builds/buildbot/builder_master/tools to latest

Tag

No problems.

Version bump

Please verify on your next release that bug 607372 is fixed.

Once you do VERIFY the bug and remove this section.

Update Bouncer

Used "Force Build" to start the "release-mozilla-1.9.2-bouncer_submitter" builder.

All good.

Stage EU Ballot Builds

# ffxbld@stage
cd /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/3.6.14-candidates/build1
mv -v partner-repacks/euballot/win32 win32-EUballot

Please remove this section once bug 614227 is FIXED.

Source / XULRunner Source

No problems.

Build

  • No problems

Remove en-US.xpi

You want to remove the en-US.xpi before autosigning creates the MD5SUMS and the SHA1SUMS.

Please remove this section once bug 628795 is fixed.

Check here if you don't do remove en-US.xpi on time and want to know how to recover.

Start autosigning

If you are expecting to sign during your workday you can start auto signing to take care of the deliverables as they are uploaded to FTP.

L10n Repack

  • macosx_repack_2/6 died with SIGUSR1 before attempting any repacks
    • Manually rebooted bm-xserve16
    • Retriggered the builder with "rebuild"
    • check bugs hit section for any filed bug
  • macosx_repack_4/6 failed because post_upload failed for 'ko'
    • used "macosx_standalone_repack" to re-trigger 'ko' as documented in here
    • check bugs hit section for any filed bug
  • win32_repack_5/6 failed to timeout on w32-ix-slave23 being slow
    • gracefully shutdown the slave and re-triggered the job
    • check bugs hit section for any filed bug

Partner Repack

  • Linux & Mac partner repack failed to upload builds bug 616512
    • the way to recover until the bug is fixed is to wait for win32 build to finish and then just re-trigger; no clobber is needed as it is not used by the builder
    • instead I failed to read note from bhearsum and I did the following
      • tried to debug locally on "bm-xserve22" why it did not work but when run it worked
cd /builds/slave/rel-192-lnx-partner-rpk/./partner-repacks/scripts/repacked_builds/3.6.14/build1
rsync -av -e ssh -oIdentityFile=~/.ssh/ffxbld_dsa . \
ffxbld@stage-old.mozilla.org:/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.6.14-candidates/build1/unsigned/partner-repacks
bash -c 'ssh -oIdentityFile=~/.ssh/ffxbld_dsa ffxbld@stage-old.mozilla.org \
touch /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.6.14-candidates/build1//unsigned/partner-repacks/partner_build_linux'
# after touching the autosign system can proceeed
  • 2nd resubmitted Mac repack failed
    • the reason is that the first job that failed did not run the cleanup job
    • check bugs hit section for any filed bug
  • It is all fine now

XULRunner Build

All good.

Unittests

Linux:

  • hit bug 565437 timeout which aborted the run; I re-triggered it

Darwin:

Windows:

  • green

Signing

Followed CombinedSigning doc.

I did remove the en-US.xpi file too late.

To recover I did the following: 

#ffxbld@stage-old.mozilla.org
rm /home/ftp/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.6.14-candidates/build1/en-US.xpi

On the keymaster: 

cd ~/signing-work/firefox-3.6.4/signed_build1
rm en-US.xpi MD5SUMS* SHA1SUMS*
# I run the following command but by running each individually
# because I didn't know I could run it in one shot
# NOTE that "stage", "verify" and "fake-upload" are targets 
# that happen after "sign2" is run
# http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/tip/release/signing/Makefile#l73
make checksum-files create-sigs verify-sigs quick-verify stage verify fake-upload PRODUCT=${PRODUCT} VERSION=${VERSION} BUILD=${BUILD} REPO=${REPO} EMAIL=${EMAIL} KEYDIR=${KEYDIR} RELCONFIG=${RELCONFIG} USE_NEW=1

Then continued by uploading as it would normally be done.

L10n Verify

Many string changes across many platforms/locales. All seemed legitimate, didn't dig further.

Updates

  • completion on Monday Jan. 24th @ 15:30pm PST.
  • QA signed off @ 4:22pm PST

3.6* -> 3.6.13

Generation

Got triggered after signing bits appeared on ftp.

No problems.

Update Verify

I had to "force build" the "update_verify" since reconfigures happened since the release was triggered. (added to bugs hit section)

All went green.

Socorro product data updates

Added '3.6.14' & '3.6.15pre' to crash-stats with this admin page.

Going to beta day!!

Do this in the morning before the rel-driver gives you the GO. 

#From a build slave you can reach aus2-staging
#cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org
~/bin/backupsnip 20110124-Firefox-3.6.14-beta #takes 20-50mins - depends if other releases are backing up

Push to Beta Channel
