Build & Repack

Mac l10n failed out because I accidentally deleted /builds/tinderbox/Fx-Mozilla1.9-l10n-Release on fx-mac-1.9-slave2. To fix, did the following:

rsync -av --exclude=Darwin* cltbld@fx-mac-1.9-slave:/builds/tinderbox/Fx-Mozilla1.9-l10n-Release/ Fx-Mozilla1.9-l10n-Release/
cd Fx-Mozilla1.9-l10n-Release
rm -rf tinderbox-configs
cvs -d:ext:cltbld@cvs.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -d tinderbox-configs -r l10n_release mozilla/tools/tinderbox-configs/firefox/macosx

To restart the automation, commented out the TinderConfig and Build portion of the 'macosx_build' Builder and used 'Force Build' to restart it.

Update Verify

• No problems on Linux
• No problems on Mac
• Got the usual messages about freebl3.chk and softokn3.chk, no real problems.

Stage

No problems

Partner Repacks

• Blew up because PartnerRepacks.pm wasn't tagged with RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M13
  • Tagged it and waited for the Dependent scheduler this time

Sign Installers

Done manually using these installer-signing-instructions here.

• complete stage-merged:

# on stage
cd /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0.10/
rsync -av batch1/mar/ stage-merged/
rsync -av batch1/stage-signed/ stage-merged/

• Create MD5 and SHA1 checksum files

# on stage
cd /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0.10/stage-merged/
~/bin/checksum-files .

• Fix permissions & ownership (on the two SUM files, and the detached sigs)

chown -R cltbld:firefox .
chmod 644 *SUMS

Update Bouncer

• Done.
• Note for next release: Do not remove the Check Now bit on the Firefox-3.0.9 Products until well after the change to the rsync module (to prevent the likes of bug 464566)

Push to mirrors

• push the stage-merged directory to the releases area:

# on stage
rsync -av /data/cltbld/firefox-3.0.10/stage-merged/ /home/ftp/pub/firefox/releases/3.0.10/

• edit the exclude file /pub/mozilla.org/zz/rsyncd-mozilla-current.exclude to add the new release (3.0.10) and remove the previous release (3.0.9).

Final Verification

Didn't have time to run it between push to mirrors and release.
