Build 1

Starting the automation

  • Created milestones for Fennec and Firefox using the l10n dashboard & downloaded changesets (still need to ship them)
    • Fennec
      • Clicked "Ship", then "Ship it" (to confirm that I wanted to ship even though there were pending signoffs).
      • Clicked "Shipping Tools"
      • Made sure "android" was the only platform listed, and "android-multilocale" was listed for multi-locale file, then clicked "Add"
      • Made sure "releases/mozilla-beta", "default", "mobile/android/locales/maemo-locales" were in the new fields, then clicked "l10n-changesets.json"
      • Downloaded the changesets from the resulting link
    • Firefox
      • Clicked "Ship", then "Ship it" (to confirm that I wanted to ship even though there were pending signoffs).
      • Clicked "Shipping Tools"
      • Clicked "l10n-changesets" and downloaded the resulting file
  • Set reserved_slaves to 6
  • Landed config updates, transplanted to the production branch
  • Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, tools with {FIREFOX,FENNEC}_16_0b6_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • Updated and reconfiged bm13
  • Ran release sanity:
cd /builds/buildbot/build1/master
source ../bin/activate
PYTHONPATH=. python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u armenzg \
   -V 16.0b6 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 1 \
   --release-config release-firefox-mozilla-beta.py \
   --release-config release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --products firefox,fennec  \
   --dryrun localhost:9001
  • All green, ran without --dryrun to start the automation

Sign Android builds

Ran the following as cltsign@signing1:

cd ~/signing-work/mozharness
hg pull -u && hg up -C
cd ..
python2.6 mozharness/scripts/sign_android.py --config-file signing/android_mozilla-beta.py

Final verification

  • win32 and linux had gone RED
  • I re-triggered and went well
