Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Helios SR2 maintenance staging repository is done

The aggregation re-ran, was promoted to /releases/maintenance, helios aggregation job is turned off, and thus ... quiet week begins again.

Test early, test often!

We've got +1 from modeling PMC

Looks like we are a good new challenger on this one (not that I'm proud of it :S)

I could not discuss with the PMC yet as we just figured it out, I just sent an email on the mailling list but most of the members are not "Skype connected" right now.  I'm hoping to see Ed moving into connected status soon...

Every year ... there's always a contest to see who gets to be last to request a respin. I really thought webtools had won for once.

Cedric, you are a Planning Council Member ... so, that's good, that's one requirement. Can you confirm you've discussed with Modeling PMC and they agree this should incur the cost of a respin? Don't know why they wouldn't ... but, that is the steps of the Exception process .... we want to make sure they buy in.


If they agree, I suggest we get the EPP packages "in hand" and then respin the repo later in the day, on Friday, since (if I am reading right) it won't effect the packages, and then we have those done. There is, after all, a chance a respin of the repository will not necessarily work (if someone else changed something to break it).


Thanks for the quick testing,

It does not affect the building of the package as Acceleo is not included in it, it does affect though the ability to install the 3.0.2 version from the package once it is built as we are referencing the helios update-site.

Does this affect any of the packages? In particular the Eclipse Modeling Tools package?

Hi,

We just found a serious problem, with the acceleo contribution. The version which is included is not the 3.0.2 as expected but the 3.1, i.e. the Indigo one.
We have fixed the problem by specifing a maximum range value, see :


https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=337544

We think that the severity of this issue justifies a re-spin of SR2, and so request one.

Thanks for your understanding,

Mariot

That last aggregation rebuild is now complete, and has been promoted to /releases/maintenance. Thanks all for your patience and especially your contributions to improving the quality of this service release.

Some time next week I'll promote to /releases/helios to allow mirroring to begin, and then "make visible" on Friday, 2/25, 9:00 AM (Eastern)  ... assuming no serious issues require other actions.

I have disabled the helios.runAggregator job in Hudson which means 1) any rebuilds will need to be explicitly requested (and approved, etc.) and 2) if any of you move your SR2 repositories to a more "released" location next week, you can safely update your contribution files to have an accurate final URL, without fear of triggering a rebuild.

Do use care, though, since we want to the ability to do a rebuild on a moments notice ... just in case something seriously wrong is discovered in the next few days.

I have also tagged the CVS contribution files with "Helios_SR2" so serve as a reference, for those that provide specific features versions and URLs in their contribution files (as we all should, IMHO ... but I know others have different opinions and processes). The tag is there, if you find it handy.

Thus begins quite week. It is a good time for continued testing, since even if you can not fix a bug for the literal release, it is always best to find serious issues before hand, so you can prepare update sites or workarounds for your users before they find the issues.

We used to say to update to final locations on the "day before" release, but we have found, in the past few maintenance releases, this can cause a bit of a bandwidth bottleneck that last day (we've gotten too big for one day of mirroring ... apparently) so as long as you have the ability to keep your stuff "invisible" feel free to move your big artifacts to their final locations beginning Monday or so, so allow several days of mirroring before we make things visible Friday morning.

As always ... questions welcome. I'll keep you updated as things change or progress.

Much thanks,
