1836957 - Could not find artifacts for a toolchain build named `toolchain-macosx64-aarch64-clang`.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox Build System :: Toolchains, defect)

Description

[Alex Kontos]

Steps to reproduce:

On esr115, commit 77f9866031c0c2a29783aa5c394e8a2fb4e87fb7, attempting to ./mach build fails to bootstrap the clang toolchain.

Actual results:

 0:11.10 ERROR!!!!!! Could not find artifacts for a toolchain build named `toolchain-macosx64-aarch64-clang`. Local commits, dirty/stale files, and other changes in your checkout may cause this error. Make sure you are on a fresh, current checkout of mozilla-central. Beware that commands like `mach bootstrap` and `mach artifact` are unlikely to work on any versions of the code besides recent revisions of mozilla-central.

Expected results:

Boostrap should have completed.

This error also occurs with sccache, cbindgen etc.

Works for me. Did you run ./mach bootstrap after switching to esr115?

Comment 3

[Alex Kontos]

So bizarre, I have just tried again (bootstrap fails due to issues downloading the macOS SDK as in bug 1831491) with --enable-bootstrap and it works! If this were to happen again, are there any more useful debugging steps I can take?
