Firefox 36.0b1 build1
Preflight
Doing a 35.0build3 --> 36.0b1 partial this time (previously we just had people deal with a complete). Needed to modify the patcher config before starting.
Checklist
-
(RelMan) Ship the l10n milestone - (RelMan) Submit to Ship It
- abandoned to do build2
Issues
- source bundles too big too sign. They've just grown as more changes landed, bug 1120844 to increase the limit on the signing server
- macosx64 partner repack has failed with this error (Job re-triggered):
Firefox.app/Contents/Resources/browser/components/libbrowsercomps.dylib: (Empty error message) tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

Issues
- check_permissions raised a warning: "/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/36.0b1/" directory already exists on stage.mozilla.org
- push_to_mirror has failed - "/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/36.0b1/" exists
- both from forgetting to remove build1 from firefox/releases/
- deleted firefox/releases/36.0b1 on stage
- filed bug 1121872 for WebOps to purge CDNs
- forced check_permissions and firefox_push_to_mirrors builders
- replied to 'Updates available on beta-cdntest' notification email with info that updates may fail until bug 1121872 complete
- added checklist item for beta build >=2, and improved docs
- edgecast took a VERY long time to purge
- todo: can we even be confident that it's purged everywhere when we only verify from scl3? users from othe rplaces in the world could still be getting the wrong files
- turns out the purging doc was wrong, so the request to edgecast was incorrect (cyliang correct the doc)
- hit some errors from aus3 not returning a response (really Balrog or Zeus ??) or being unresolvable, but eventually final_verification was green
Fennec 36.0b1 build1
