1528929 - Running `artifact clear-cache` after `clobber` fails with config.status not available

Status: NEW

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

STRs:

• enable artifact builds
• ./mach build
• ./mach clobber
• ./mach artifact clear-cache

Typically there was an issue while downloading the artifact in the build, and the idea was to cleanup the environment by running both clobber and removing the downloaded artifacts.

But artifact clear-cache failed with:

Error running mach:

    ['artifact', 'clear-cache']

The error occurred in code that was called by the mach command. This is either
a bug in the called code itself or in the way that mach is calling it.

You should consider filing a bug for this issue.

If filing a bug, please include the full output of mach, including this error
message.

The details of the failure are as follows:

BuildEnvironmentNotFoundException: config.status not available. Run configure.

  File "/Users/jdescottes/Development/hg/fx-team/python/mozbuild/mozbuild/mach_commands.py", line 1281, in artifact_clear_cache
    artifacts = self._make_artifacts(tree=tree, job=job)
  File "/Users/jdescottes/Development/hg/fx-team/python/mozbuild/mozbuild/mach_commands.py", line 1247, in _make_artifacts
    if conditions.is_hg(self):
  File "/Users/jdescottes/Development/hg/fx-team/python/mozbuild/mozbuild/base.py", line 933, in is_hg
    return getattr(cls, 'substs', {}).get('VCS_CHECKOUT_TYPE') == 'hg'
  File "/Users/jdescottes/Development/hg/fx-team/python/mozbuild/mozbuild/base.py", line 302, in substs
    return self.config_environment.substs
  File "/Users/jdescottes/Development/hg/fx-team/python/mozbuild/mozbuild/base.py", line 285, in config_environment
    raise BuildEnvironmentNotFoundException('config.status not available. Run configure.')

Since clobber is not clearing artifact caches, in theory it should not prevent from clearing those caches?
