Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

  • set 'anymaster', 'mozilla-beta', 'any-builder' on clobberer
  • reserved 8 slaves 
echo "8"> master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
  • Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
  • Land automation configs
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags
hg tag -f FIREFOX_10_0b6_RELEASE FIREFOX_10_0b6_BUILD1 FENNEC_10_0b6_RELEASE FENNEC_10_0b6_BUILD1
  • update and reconfigure the master
  • dry run of release-sanity 
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u nthomas \
 -pfirefox,fennec -V 10.0b6 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \
 -c release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py -c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py \
 --dryrun localhost:9001
  • start automation
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u nthomas \
 -pfirefox,fennec -V 10.0b6 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \

Unittests / Talos

  1. Look to see that they ran
  2. Document any oranges (per platform) for unittests - if possible, try to confirm it's known/random
  3. Make sure there's no red/failures that we need to have a dev look at

Firefox Signing

Android Signing

Instructions in MobileSigning. No problems.

NOTE: It can be started in a different Windows without having to wait for Firefox signing to finish.

Android Signature Verification

no problems

L10N verify

win32 timed out doing 

bash -c './verify_l10n.sh firefox-10.0b6-build1 win32'

on moz2-darwin10-slave08. Green when rebuilt, other platforms had no problems.

Updates

pushsnip failed, all 5 attempts of the retry when they took longer than an hour to complete. We hit bug 683417 leaving behind processes each time it tried to kill-and-retry. That bug has a fix and also a timeout bump on it.

Finish up by hand: 

# on aus2-staging
~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-10.0b6-build1-test

# on mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave21
cd /builds/slave/rel-m-beta-updates/build/temp/firefox/10.0b5-10.0b6
rsync -av -e 'ssh -oIdentityFile=~/.ssh/cltbld_dsa' aus2/ cltbld@aus2-staging.mozilla.org:/opt/aus2/snippets/staging/Firefox-10.0b6-build1
bash /builds/slave/rel-m-beta-updates/tools/release/compare-channel-snippets.sh aus2 beta aus2.test releasetest

Update verify

Had to force these with: 

for p in linux linux64 macosx64 win32; do
    for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10; do
      echo $p $i
      curl -s "http://buildbot-master08.build.sjc1.mozilla.com:8001/builders/release-mozilla-beta-${p}_update_verify_${i}%2F10/force" >/dev/null
      sleep 5
    done
  done

but started failing pretty quickly due to 

command: START
command: hg update -C -r FIREFOX_10_0b6_RELEASE_RUNTIME
command: cwd: buildbot-configs
command: output:
abort: unknown revision 'FIREFOX_10_0b6_RELEASE_RUNTIME'!
command: END (0.32s elapsed)

Looks like fallout from bug 719436. Backed that out and retriggered tests. All green.

Reset reserved slaves

[cltbld@buildbot-master08 ~]$ echo 0 > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1

Run backupsnip

~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-10.0b6-build1

Check permissions / AV scan

Forced with script_repo_revision & release_config set.

no problems with permissions check or av.

Push files to internal mirrors

Mirrors Policy

no problems

Final verification

no problems

Push to beta

~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-10.0b6-build1

Publish Fennec to the Android Market

Push the files

  • edited push_fennec_beta.sh as ffxbld@stage
  • ran push_fennec_beta

Android Market

IMPORTANT - Make sure to follow instructions!

  • download multi apk (e.g. multi/fennec-10.0b6.multi.android-arm.apk)
  • visit https://market.android.com/publish
  • choose "Firefox Beta" or "Firefox"
  • select the "APK Files" tab and choose "Upload APK"
    • choose the multi apk that you downloaded and hit "upload"
      • NOTE: the progress bar does not seem to show progress (at least on Google Chrome)
    • when it finishes uploading, verify VersionCode is almost the build date (seems to add an hour)
    • hit "Save"
  • activate new apk (You should see an Error message since both apk's are active)
  • deactivate old apk (You should not see the Error message anymore)
  • hit "Save"
  • If this is a beta 1, go to "Product Details" tab -> Recent Changes, change the url to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/{VERSION}beta/releasenotes/
    • and hit "Save"
