- production-1.8-master
- removed /builds/buildbot/Automation/twistd.log.???
Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 (unchanged from Fx2.0.0.17)
Setup before starting:
- Updated /builds/buildbot/Automation/buildbot-configs on production-1.8-master.
- master.cfg is "Locally Modified" to contain passwords. Identical to repository version otherwise.
- Turned off the nightly builders on production-1.8-master to make sure they don't interfere with the release. (We need to figure out how to avoid this in the future).
- commented out "c['schedulers'].append(depend_scheduler)"
- updated mozilla1.8 tinderbox to say "no nightlies right now"
- ensure that machines have enough resources

Push updates to beta channel
Ran the pushsnip commands for both 2.0.0.18 and 3.0.4 at the same time on aus2-staging.
# put snippets on beta $ sudo su - cltbld # make sure using latest version of scripts in mozilla/tools/release/bin/ $ cd bin $ cvs update . $ cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging # note the required parameter must match what will be used with pushsnip below. $ time ~/bin/backupsnip 20081103-Firefox-3.0.4-beta Running /bin/tar cfvj /opt/aus2/snippets/backup/20081105-1-pre-20081103-Firefox-3.0.4-beta.tar.bz2 . real 24m5.278s user 0m24.322s sys 0m27.792s $ time ~/bin/pushsnip 20081030-Firefox-2.0.0.18-beta real 1m46.869s user 0m0.205s sys 0m7.835s $ time ~/bin/pushsnip 20081103-Firefox-3.0.4-beta real 0m50.238s user 0m0.096s sys 0m3.560s
Sign Installers
Done manually using these installer-signing-instructions here
- complete stage-merged:
# on stage cd /data/cltbld/firefox-2.0.0.18/ rsync -av batch1/mar/ stage-merged/ rsync -av batch1/stage-signed/ stage-merged/
- Create MD5 and SHA1 checksum files
# on stage cd /data/cltbld/firefox-2.0.0.18/stage-merged/ ~/bin/checksum-files .
- Fix permissions & ownership (on the two SUM files, and the detached sigs)
chown -R cltbld:firefox . chmod 644 *SUMS
Update Bouncer
- Manually added entries to download.mozilla.org
- Note for next release: Do not remove the Check Now bit on the Firefox-2.0.0.18 Products until well after the change to the rsync module (to prevent the likes of bug 464566)
Push to mirrors
- push the stage-merged directory to the releases area:
# on stage rsync -av /data/cltbld/firefox-2.0.0.18/stage-merged/ /home/ftp/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.18/
Final Verification
- Verify that releasetest points to valid bouncer links:
# this can be run from anywhere cvs co mozilla/testing/release cd mozilla/testing/release/updates cat moz18-firefox-*.cfg | grep -v major | sed 's/betatest/releasetest/' | grep -v 2.0a | grep -v 2.0b > update.cfg ./verify.sh -t update.cfg 2>&1 | tee quickVerify.log
- Look for any HTTP error codes besides 200 ("OK") and 302 ("Found"):
grep HTTP quickVerify.log | grep -v 200 | grep -v 302
- Before pushing final updates,verify that "release" and "releasetest" channel match:
# on aus2-staging
$ cd 20081030-Firefox-2.0.0.18
time find -type d -iregex '.*release.*' | perl -nle '$a = $_; $a =~ s/release/releasetest/; system("diff -r -u $_ ../20081030-Firefox-2.0.0.18-test/$a");'
real 0m43.382s
user 0m0.776s
sys 0m13.461s
Encountered 404s when trying to retrieve files from two mirrors:
- mozilla.c3sl.ufpr.br
- mozilla-mirror.naist.jp
justdave indicated that this was a known issue with sentry adding mirrors before they have all the files. I was able to access all the 404 files on subsequent attempts.
Publish Updates to Release Channel
backupsnip was run as part of the Firefox 3.0.4 release process: 3.0.4 build notes
# on aus2-staging $ time ~/bin/pushsnip 20081030-Firefox-2.0.0.18 real 0m55.028s user 0m0.131s sys 0m6.420s
Release
- On stage.m.o, do the following:
- Update "latest" symlinks
$ cd /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ $ mv latest-2.0 latest-2.0.old $ ln -s 2.0.0.18 latest-2.0 $ rm latest-2.0.old
