1244298 - URLs are not opened in artifact builds due to stale android-api-11 artifacts being fetched

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Android Studio and Gradle Integration, defect)

Description

[Francisco Jordano [:arcturus] [:francisco]]

When clicking on any url, from the top sites, bookmarks or any of the tabs, or even introducing the url on the address bar, fennec doesn't load any url.

The logcat output that I get each time I try to open an url is:

Assuming flags are vaguely correct: is this a Nightly build (if so, which one?) or a developer build?

I've seen this before for my own local builds, where a clobber was needed.

It's a developer build, just compiled from m-c.

Hi Richard,

just went through the process again, and manage to have the problem solved, the different between my builds was the first time, when I get the error I was using arctifact builds in macosx, and the second time when it worked I just build gecko from scracth plus fennec.

Just tried:

./mach artifact clear-cache
./mach artifact install
./mach build && ./mach package && ./mach install

And still see the problem.

This is most often a binary mismatch between your source tree and the binaries fetched.  It can be hard to determine why.

We've recently landed some improvements to artifact that should be better at choosing artifacts: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1240667.

In general, I think the best I can recommend is to make sure you update your source tree and then re-run the build.  We have further improvements planned to make sure artifacts aren't too stale, and I hope these help you too.

I now think we're seeing stale android-api-11 artifacts being fetched, instead of shiny fresh android-api-15 artifacts.  Digging in.

Francisco -- just want to thank you for filing early and to apologize for not identifying the real cause here until I started seeing this throughout the whole Fennec team.

It can be hard to differentiate "known artifact issues" from "we're busted" -- and in this case, we were busted.  Thanks again!
