Notes

Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

detailed instructions

  • Clobber: https://build.mozilla.org/clobberer/ Any master -> release-comm-esr10 -> Any builder
  • 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-master32
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
cat reserved_slaves
6
  • For build1 only, create a symlink for your $version (eg 11.0b4, 10.0.2esr, 10.0.2, 3.6.27) (until bug 725839 is resolved)
# tbirdbld@stage
cd /pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/
version=10.0.6esr
mkdir ../candidates/$version-candidates
ln -s ../candidates/$version-candidates $version-candidates
  • No l10n changes
  • Double land automation configs
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags. (details)
hg tag -f THUNDERBIRD_10_0_6esr_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • update and reconfigure the master
  • dry run automation start
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u coop -V 10.0.6esr \
    --branch comm-esr10 --build-number 1 \
    --release-config release-thunderbird-comm-esr10.py --products thunderbird  \
    --dryrun -l localhost:9001

2012-07-13 15:14:50,512 : ERROR : Error verifying mozconfigs
    • same as for 10.0.5 esr (due to mozconfig change)
  • start automation ← monitor progress on buildbot (e.g. comm-esr10)
    • the same command as above but without the "--dryrun" and with "-b" to skip tests
