859448 - hekad project building on ci.mo (builds, jenkins plugins, environment reqs)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: WebOps: Other, task)

Description

[Ben Bangert [:benbangert]]

I setup a hekad build on ci.mozilla.org under my account, but apparently don't have privileges to build it.

Since the build/ URL space is separately protected, I can't setup github recieve hooks to trigger the build either. Our case is slightly complex in that changes to either of two repos should trigger a build. Short of being able to use the "Trigger builds remotely" feature, it'd be useful to have the "URL Trigger" plugin installed so that I can use it to monitor both repo's for changes to trigger a build.

Our build requires a package not always on build machines which I haven't been able to verify its presence on our build machines yet either. We need cmake 2.8 or greater for our build process, along with g++ installed (which I assume is already installed).

ci.m.o is actually run by webdev, not RelEng! We also have resources to do continuous integration, but it wouldn't be through Jenkins or ci.m.o.

Ah, and which component is that? The search led me to believe this belonged here...

I'm not sure if there is one...I'm hoping Rob Helmer will be able to direct you to the right place.

An update, I have it building, but it needs cmake 2.8 or greater installed.

I see I am too late :) but server-ops::webops is the right place.

Remaining work needed for this bug:
- Install cmake 2.8 or later on the CI builders

Comment 7

[Ben Bangert [:benbangert]]

Also useful to have for post-build rpm generation:
- Install rpmbuild
- Install fpm

Comment 8

[Jason Thomas [:jason]]

cmake 2.8.8, fpm, and rpmbuild installed on jenkins host.
