Retriggering Nightly Builds
= Retriggering Nightly Builds =
<br />Nightly builds run at '''12:00 / 01:00 AM/PM RO time''' so if we don't succeed in doing merges to central before that, nightly builds will need to be '''restarted''' on the last merge otherwise they will run again on the previous merge. <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Note:'''</span> We only respin nightlies if we miss them by a few minutes or if we need to get something into the next nightly( for example - fixes for crashes). If they have been running for '''''more than half an hour''''', we <span style="color:#FF0000">won’t</span> retrigger them. <span style="color:#FF0000">'''Note:'''</span> If you request new Nightlies, only request them for the platforms you canceled. '''Firefox for Desktop''' (Windows, Linux, Mac) gets Nightlies '''twice per day''' (10am and 10pm UTC) while '''Firefox for Android''' only at '''10am UTC'''. If the ''night shift'' needs new Nightlies, it shall only request them for ''desktop''. ===== Steps ===== *Open mozilla-central and type <span style="color:#14866d">"'''nightly'''"</span> in the upper right search box, also <span style="color:#14866d">select the running jobs</span> (gray) and <span style="color:#14866d">deselect the rest</span>[[File:Nightly filter.jpg|800px|center]]*Scroll down to the last merge, you will see "N" builds running[[File:Nightly running.jpg|900px|center]]*Pin all the jobs and cancel them[[File:Nightly pin.jpg|800px|center]]*Pin all nightlies and select '''“Clear”'''*Open https://tools.taskcluster.net and login if necessary*Click on the following links: 1.To retrigger nightlies for '''all desktop platforms''' (there is no hook for just Linux nightlies) https://tools.taskcluster.net/hooks/#project-releng/nightly-desktop%252fmozilla-central 2.To retrigger nightlies for '''Android''' https://tools.taskcluster.net/hooks/#project-releng/nightly-fennec%252fmozilla-central*At the top you will see when the task has been ran (picture is for reference)[[File:Retrigger running.jpg|500px|center]]*Scroll down and click '''Trigger hook''', a pop-up will be displayed, click '''Trigger Hook''' again[[File:Trigger hook.jpg|500px|center]]<span style="color:#14866d"><u>'''Do the same for both links and we've successfully started nightly builds, they will run on the last merge, please check the latest merge for this.'''</u></span>  As of Jul 26, 2017 nightly builds for all platforms on m-c are now running in taskcluster so the more instructions on how to respin them have been updated for these platforms
