Notes

Build 1

Diff mozconfigs

If this is a *.0 beta -> release. May also need to update the whitelist of nightly vs release differences for release sanity.

They look reasonable, but will break on release sanity; will use -m.

Preparing to start Automation

detailed instructions

  • No clobbers to set for mozilla-aurora release (first one). Set one for mozilla-beta.
  • Reserved 4 slaves
  • Update l10n changesets for mobile
    • required waiting for Axel on a German holiday
  • Double-landed configs:
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags.
hg tag -f FENNEC_14_0b1_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • update and reconfigure the master
  • release-sanity
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. ../bin/python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u aki -V 14.0b1 --branch mozilla-aurora --build-number 1 -c release-fennec-mozilla-aurora.py -m -l --products fennec --dryrun localhost:9001 2>&1 | tee aki.out
  • start automation ← monitor progress on buildbot (e.g. aurora)
PYTHONPATH=. ../bin/python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u aki -V 14.0b1 --branch mozilla-aurora --build-number 1 -c release-fennec-mozilla-aurora.py -m -l --products fennec localhost:9001 2>&1 | tee aki2.out

Build

Fennec

  • Android build died during compile: slave lost.
    • It rebooted in the middle, possibly due to a system clock change.
    • Rebuilt, finished fine.
Fennec repacks
  • Android single locale repacks failed to repack anything... ran through the script without errors, with empty locale lists.
    • Wrote a patch
    • Reran on [a patched mozharness] mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave08 without chunking args:
# cltbld@mv-moz2-linux-ix-slave08
cd /builds/slave/rel-m-aurora-andrd-rpk-4
scripts/scripts/mobile_l10n.py --cfg single_locale/release_mozilla-aurora_android.py --tag-override FENNEC_14_0b1_RELEASE
    • This worked.

Android Signing

  • Wrote a patch to sign aurora.
  • This worked, but threw a lot of errors (all single locales for android-xul; multi for android). Filed bug 750976.

Reset reserved slaves

Done.

DONE TO HERE
