Preparing to start Automation

  • Set clobbers for the appropriate masters. Any master, mozilla-beta, any builder.
  • Reserve slaves
[cltbld@buildbot-master08 ~]$ echo 8 > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves_bm08-build1
  • Updated l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
  • Landed automation configs on both default/production
  • Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags
hg tag -f FIREFOX_9_0b6_RELEASE FIREFOX_9_0b6_BUILD1 FENNEC_9_0b6_BUILD1 FENNEC_9_0b6_RELEASE
  • updated and reconfigured the master
  • dry run of automation
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u lsblakk -pfirefox,fennec 
-V 9.0b6 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 -c release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py 
-c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --dryrun localhost:9001

Signing

NOTE: use new signcode keys from d:/2011-keys No problems

Firefox Signing

Signing sent out an email saying it had started at 12:08 PT but then nothing after that, on the keymaster my cygwin window was gone and signcode was not running. Went on to keymaster and removed the contents of ~/signing-work/firefox-9.0b6 and started again: 

PRODUCT=firefox
VERSION=9.0b6
BUILD=1
TAG=FIREFOX_9_0b6_RELEASE
REPO='releases/mozilla-beta'
EMAIL=release@mozilla.com
KEYDIR=d:/2011-keys
RELCONFIG=mozilla/release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py

mkdir -p ~/signing-work/${PRODUCT}-${VERSION}/lib/python
cd ~/signing-work/${PRODUCT}-${VERSION}
cp ~/hg-tools/release/signing/* .
rsync -av ~/hg-tools/lib/python/ ./lib/python/
make autosign PRODUCT=${PRODUCT} VERSION=${VERSION} BUILD=${BUILD} REPO=${REPO} \
 EMAIL=${EMAIL} KEYDIR=${KEYDIR} RELCONFIG=${RELCONFIG}

Android Signing
