492397 - Update QMO stage/production servers to pull from correct locations in SVN

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Paul Craciunoiu [:paulc]]

The QMO repository is currently set up such that the production server is at branches/qmo2.
This needs to be moved to tags/production (as we usually have it)

Comment 1

[Paul Craciunoiu [:paulc]]

Following an IRC conversation with Alex, we also need to resync production and
trunk. It seems trunk is outdated. So after this change we should tag the
current trunk as tags/qmo1, and replace this trunk with production. So, after
this process, trunk should be up to date with the current branches/qmo2, and
the production site should be located at tags/production

I hope I have this right, Alex :) Would we need to do a database update for the
new trunk (staging server) as well, since the trunk files will change quite a
bit?

Anybody know where the stage server for QMO is located (URL)?

I think this is it...
https://quality.authstage.mozilla.com/

... but I don't know the username/password 
(this could pull from LDAP, or have a generic username/password)

thanks.  This could be posted with the HTTP AUTH login message, I think.

It looks like the stage site pulls from branches/qmo2,
(IT, can you verify this please?), so this is a good place to start.

The process should be something like...

1) move trunk -> tags/qmo1_trunk_051109
2) move branches/qmo2 -> trunk
3) IT will need to update stage to pull from trunk, and migrate any local files (e.g. settings.php, uploaded files, etc)

The process will be nearly the same for moving from trunk -> tags/production

Bumping this up as it's blocking development.

This sounds like something webdev needs to do, not IT, correct?

Has this been done yet?

Is this confirmed then? I will do the svn moves after.

[Paul Craciunoiu [:paulc]]

Chizu, if I do the move now will you be able to update stage today, so that it's not down over the weekend?

Also, could you tell me what each server pulls from?

E.g. does stage pull from trunk? Or somewhere else? Production I would guess pulls from branches/qmo2

I suppose tagging and moving production can be done anyway (since those require a push to break if not set up), but I'd prefer not to break stage.

Yes, I can do the switch today.

Stage and Production -> http://svn.mozilla.org/projects/quality.mozilla.org/branches/qmo2

Thanks!
I'll do the move right now and post again when I'm done. Then you should update:
* production to pull from tags/production
* stage to pull from trunk

How often is stage set up to update? And how? I think on SUMO, for example, it's set to update every 10 minutes or so.

Moved trunk to tags/qmo1_051509 - r25801
Copied branches/qmo2 to trunk - r25805

Ideally after this, trunk will be an exact copy of production (as production is currently)
Chizu: we should update stage to pull from trunk now and make sure it works. The settings file should be present in trunk/sites/default/settings.php, but should not be under svn.

If the process goes well but the site has errors, we might need to copy the database over from production, as well, and back up the existing one just in case - not sure if that needs to be done by IT, you would know.

[chizu]

Stage is pulling from trunk now and updates every ten minutes via cron.

Comment 13

[Paul Craciunoiu [:paulc]]

Moved branches/qmo2 to tags/production - r25807-9 (did some renaming multi-step to avoid conflicts)

Need to update production to pull from tags/production. Hopefully all will be fine on next push :)

[chizu]

Production is now on the production tag.
