Notes
Build 1
Preparing to start Automation
- Marked "any master", "mozilla-1.9.2", "any builder" for a clobber
- Landed release config update
- Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, and build/tools with FIREFOX_3_6_25_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
- Set reserved_slaves_bm08 to 16 (after it had already been set to 10 for 9.0b6)
- Ran release_sanity's dry-run:
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master source ../bin/activate PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u bhearsum -p firefox -V 3.6.25 --branch mozilla-1.9.2 --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-1.9.2.py --dryrun localhost:9001
- Failed because the 3.6.25 milestone didn't exist.
- Started the release:
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u bhearsum -p firefox -V 3.6.25 --branch mozilla-1.9.2 --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-1.9.2.py --bypass-check localhost:9001

Didn't send it because e-mail about 9.0 will be sent to the list soon.

Firefox Signing
Failed with "Failed to sign zh-TW". Possibly caused by someone logging onto the signing machine while it was signing.
cd ~/signing-work/firefox-3.6.25
rm -rf signed-build1
# removed any random file to make the download script copy the files to signed-build1 again
rm -rf unsigned-build1/update/mac/sr/firefox-3.6.25.complete.mar
make autosign PRODUCT=${PRODUCT} VERSION=${VERSION} BUILD=${BUILD} REPO=${REPO} EMAIL=${EMAIL} KEYDIR=${KEYDIR} RELCONFIG=${RELCONFIG}
Worked fine this time. Got "signature verification succeeded" mail.
L10N verify
All green.
Updates
No problems
Update verify
Results were very slow coming due to 1-2 min d/l times for mar files, instead of a few seconds. bug 710427 filed, and traced to the mtv1-sjc1 network link failing over to the 100Mb/s backup. Once we were back on the 1Gb/s link they finished quickly, but not before we were delayed in pushing to the beta channel. Windows 9/10 is still running because we had to swap back to the 100 link.
Filed bug 710461 to make update verify do less duplicated work.
Major Update
Used "Force build" to start the major update builder.
Update verify
All green
Socorro Product Data Updates
Reset reserved slaves
- Lowered reserved slaves to 8, because 9.0b6 was still running.
Run backupsnip
# cltbld@aus2-staging cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging ~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1-beta
Check permissions / AV scan
- No permissions problems
- Virus scan failed with:
command: START
command: ssh -l ffxbld -i /Users/cltbld/.ssh/ffxbld_dsa stage.mozilla.org extract_and_run_command.py -j2 clamdscan -m --no-summary -- /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.6.25-candidates/build1/
command: cwd: /builds/slave/rel-m-192-av

import struct, os, bz2, hashlib, tempfile
ImportError: No module named hashlib
command: END (0.90s elapsed)
- bug 509158 caused mar.py to depend on hashlib
- Updated the tools checkout on surf to 233227ca07af to make *this* virus scan work. Filed bug 710299 on the root issue.
- Didn't revert the tools checkout to the tip of default afterwards, because 9.0b6 still has to do its scan.
- Second virus scan worked fine, no viruses found.
Push to beta
cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging ~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1-beta
Push to internal mirrors
As cltbld@surf, added the following line to /pub/mozilla.org/zz/rsyncd-mozilla-releases.exclude:
- firefox/releases/3.6.25
After waiting 10 minutes to make sure the change was picked up, used "force build" to start the push to mirrors, no properties required.
Push to external mirrors
- Removed the "- firefox/releases/3.6.25" line from rsyncd-mozilla-releases.exclude.
- Updated "rsyncd-mozilla-current.exclude" to point at 3.6.25.
Final verification
Push XULRunner to Mirrors
# xrbld@stage rsync -av --exclude=*.txt --exclude=*unsigned* --exclude=*-symbols.zip \ /pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/nightly/3.6.25-candidates/build1/ \ /pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/3.6.25/
No need to change the rsync files it light of bug 708249.
Update XULRunner wiki page
Updated XULRunner wiki pages: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XULRunner_1.9.2_Release_Notes
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko_SDK
Push to Release Channel
# cltbld@aus2-staging cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging ~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1 real 256m57.728s user 0m12.344s sys 1m5.200s
- Filed bug 711174 on getting backupsnip/pushsnip to record timing information to a file. Filed bug 711176 on the NFS share being slow.
- Pushed with:
# cltbld@aus2-staging cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging ~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1
Update symlinks
# ffxbld@stage cd /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases rm latest-3.6 && ln -s 3.6.25 latest-3.6
Update MU snippets to point at 9.0.1
- Landed release config update and reconfiged bm08.
- Used "Force build" to start the major update builder
- Ran the following to separate out the Linux and Mac snippets, because 9.0.1 is a Linux/Mac-only release (desktop-wise):
# cltbld@aus2-staging cd /opt/aus2/snippets/staging rsync -av --exclude='**WINNT_x86-msvc**' Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-MU/ Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-MU-mac+linux/ rsync -av --exclude='**WINNT_x86-msvc**' Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-MU-beta/ Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-MU-beta-mac+linux/
- Ran backupsnip:
~/bin/backupsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-MU-mac+linux
Push MU
In the end, we didn't end up shipping 9.0.1, so this is the pushsnip we used:
~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1 ~/bin/pushsnip Firefox-3.6.25-build1-9.0.1-build1-beta
