Notes

WE ARE HERE

Build

  • Made sure all build machines have clean release directories.
    • With clobberer
  • Updated buildbot-configs for l10n and configs
  • Updated and reconfigured buildmaster
  • Kicked off with the following command:
bin/buildbot sendchange --username=ewong --master=localhost:9010 --branch=releases/comm-esr52 -c "SeaMonkey 2.49.4build1" doit
  • Tagging
    • Ok
  • Builds
    • Win32 and Linux* builds and repacks were ok.
    • OSX64 build was busted due to the buildsymbols using a non-universal build format(even if it was built with a universal mozconfig)
      • fixed the gecko-versions.json to use 51 gecko and retriggered; but failed due to the changes table missing a few Csets (I think they were purged). Had to re-add them and retriggered.
      • when the build finished, I triggered the osx repacks.

Update Version for stage scripts

From 2.46 onwards, stage.mozilla.org was decomissioned. All references to steps were done directly on my system using modified(to use S3) scripts from the old stage.mozilla.org server.

Modified versions.sh.

Signing

  • We have no signing infrastructure for SeaMonkey right now, so I faked the signing step that is usually done after completion of builds and L10n repacks and before the update generation.
  • Ran sh ~/fakesign.sh
  • signing good

Updates and Verification

  • _l10n_verify and updates started automatically, triggered by the fake-signing.
    • L10n verification is mostly useless, since we have lots of expected changed strings.
  • Update failed due to:
    • patcher paths using nightly when all of the candidates are using candidates/
  • Update Verification broke due to path issues in verify.sh. Changed reference paths in verify.sh and the workdir that verify.sh and the command to call verify.sh finally unhorked the verifications (particularly macosx64).

Copy Language Packs

Used langpackmove.sh as documented in 2.0b1 notes to move the langpacks into the directory we want them in for release.

Zipcopy

Used zipcopy.sh as documented in 2.0b1 notes to move the Windows zips into the directory we want them in for release.


Create Checksums

With make-checksums.sh as documented in 2.0.3 notes, created MD5SUMS and SHA1SUMS files containing all files we release - copying the README from last time and replacing the versions as needed, as well as doing the same for Linux x86_64.


Push build to TrendMicro

I used the TrendMicro provided staging ftp directory to stage 2.15b2 win32 (all locales) for them to scan, and be sure there are no false-positives.

  • Used |viruspush.sh| on stage for this.

E-mailed our TrendMicro contact to let him know of the new version available on their FTP server.

Push To Mirrors

Used mirrorpush.sh as documented in 2.0.3 notes to finally push the files to the public dir for mirrors to pick them up.


Final Verification

Used 'Force Build' to start the final_verification builder; all tested URLs are HTTP 200 and 302 - ready for going public!

Push website updates Live

[Starting with SeaMonkey 2.35, we have migrated away from CVS, and so the old cvs method no longer works. Here's the new way:]

  1. Clone website (if not done)
  2. cd website
  3. Import patch
    • hg qimport <patch>
  4. Finish patch
    • hg qfinish <patch>
  5. Push patch to website repo

[NO MORE CVS! YAY!]

Push Updates to the beta Channel

Once website updates are live
