Assuming this is not a chemspill.
==== Run backupsnip for release snippets ====
Do this the night before release day as it can take up to two hours.
=== Push index file to mirrors ===
=== Push to external mirrors ===
If this is a chemspill you will want to ping justdave (or other sysadmin) in #release-drivers and ask them to enable CDN.
* Remove previously added blacklisting entry from stage.mozilla.org:/pub/mozilla.org/zz/rsyncd-mozilla-releases.exclude
* Replace old version with the current one in stage.mozilla.org:/pub/mozilla.org/zz/rsyncd-mozilla-current.exclude
See [https://intranet.mozilla.org/RelEngWiki/index.php/Managing_Rsync_Modules details]
=== Release Day ===
==== Publish Fennec to the Play Store (for beta releases and release releases) ====
=====Push the files (for beta releases and release releases)=====
* Use [http://hg.mozilla.org/build/braindump/file/tip/releases-related/push_fennec.sh this script] and run it as ffxbld@stage (please push you changes prior to using it, and grab latest on stage via <tt>curl -O http://hg.mozilla.org/build/braindump/raw-file/tip/releases-related/push_fennec.sh</tt>)
=====Play Store (for beta releases and release releases)=====
'''IMPORTANT -''' Make sure to follow instructions!
* download multi apk (e.g. [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/candidates/10.0b6-candidates/build1/android/multi/fennec-10.0b6.multi.android-arm.apk 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 the build date (almost anyway, the market reports an hour later than our buildID)
** 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"
====Push XULRunner to Mirrors ====
==== Update XULRunner wiki page ====
For major releases or chemspills, update the links on:
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XULRunner
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko_SDK
Also for older releases:
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XULRunner_1.9.2_Release_Notes

Notes

Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

  • Set clobbers for the appropriate masters.
  • Reserve slaves (you need ~5 each of linux, linux64, win32 (w32), and macosx64 (moz2-darwin10)). Doing this 2-3 hours in advance should speed things up. e.g.:
[cltbld@buildbot-master13 master]$ echo 8 > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves
  • For Firefox build1 only, create a symlink for your $version (eg 11.0b4, 10.0.2esr, 10.0.2, 3.6.27) (until bug 725839 is resolved)
# ffxbld@stage
cd /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/
mkdir ../candidates/13.0b6-candidates
ln -s ../candidates/13.0b6-candidates 13.0b6-candidates
  • Update l10n changesets for desktop
  • Land automation configs
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags. (details)
    • Sample command for Firefox 10.0 beta 5 build 1:
hg tag -f FIREFOX_13_0b6_RELEASE FIREFOX_13_0b6_BUILD1
  • update and reconfigure the master
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u armenzg -V 13.0b6 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \
    --release-config release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py --products firefox  \
    --dryrun localhost:9001
  • start automation ← monitor progress on buildbot (e.g. beta)
    • the same command as above but without the "--dryrun"
    • I had to run with -b to skip checking for the L10n dashboard

E-mail Metrics

Use the address "metrics-alerts < AT > mozilla < PERIOD > org". Note for first-time-releasers: your email will get held for moderator approval - that is expected. If it happens more than once, get help on #metrics. 

Firefox,firefox,firefox,13.0b6,13.0

Tag

No problems.

Bouncer Submitter

No problems.

Source

No problems.

Build

Firefox

No problems.

Firefox repacks

We had a couple of issues with the mac repacks. I re-triggered them.

Unittests / Talos

details

  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

XULRunner

No problems.

Source

No problems.

Build

No problems.

Checksums

No problems.

Updates

  • updates generation worked

Update verify

XXX: Running DONE TO HERE

Reset reserved slaves

XXX: TODO

Check permissions / AV scan

It is supposed to be triggered automatically after updates are done.

  • check permissions failed. I assume I can fix this one I fix the candidates symlinks later on

Going to Beta

NOTE: Skip to "Before Release Day" for beta releases

Run backupsnip

NOTE: Remember to do this at least 2 hours ahead of the expected "go to beta" email. details

Remember to ssh to aus3-staging using your short LDAP name and then run sudo su - ffxbld once on. If you intend to use screen, initiate your screen session while you are still yourself.

Push to beta

Wait for "go" from release managers
For Firefox:

  • Publish (and record run time here): details
  • on completion, email r-d that VERSION updates are live on the beta channel

Wait for confirmation from QA that each of the above releases is okay, then close the tracking ticket.
