NB: Talkback not listed, we're using pre-build binaries (bug 403701). It was still tagged because this change is very new, and the automation needs remedial lessons.

Detailed Notes

Automation

Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M7_1

Setup before starting:

  • used existing version bump bug to attached diff for tb-moz18-bootstrap.cfg
  • ensure that machines have enough resources (bug 393274)
    • On production-1.8-master, remove private and public areas:
      • rm -rf /data/cltbld/firefox-*
      • rm -rf /builds/tags/* - did not do this, plenty of space
      • in /home/ftp/pub/firefox/nightly/, remove all except the 2.0.0.x-candidates directory for the previous release
      • pull in 2.0.0.9 files with rsync -av stage.mozilla.org:/home/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/2.0.0.9-candidates /data/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/
    • On the build machines (see table aboue), checked that there was sufficient working space (~ 1GB), and stopped tinderbox. Also verified there is space available on bm-xserve04 for l10n-verify.
    • On prometheus-vm, checked that there was space for another update run (4GB)
  • on each machine, setup release automation using the tag above
cd /builds/release   # or /cygdrive/X/builds/release
cvs -nq up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M7_1
# check for merges (M) or conflicts (C); if any found, check for local changes
cvs -q up -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M7_1
cd configs
cvs up -A     # in case we need to make changes later
cd ..
rm bootstrap.cfg logs
ln -s configs/tb-moz18-bootstrap.cfg bootstrap.cfg
mkdir -p old-logs/logs.tb20012/rc1
ln -s old-logs/logs.tb20012/rc1 logs

perl -c release

Some machines don't have the perl module Config::General so comment out 

use Config::General;

at the top of Bootstrap/Step/PatcherConfig.pm. Only need this on prometheus-vm anyway, which has it.

Tag

On production-1.8-master in /builds/release: ./release -o Tag 2>&1 | tee logs/release-Tag-RC1.log

Source

On production-1.8-master in /builds/release: ./release -o Source 2>&1 | tee logs/release-Source-RC1.log

Build

After win32 l10n, had to set cerberus-vm back to text mode 

mount -t -sc /cygdrive

so that tinderbox would run. rsync -av stage.mozilla.org:/home/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/2.0.0.9-candidates /data/ftp/pub/thunderbird/nightly/
