391114 - Upload PDB files for Fx 200x to symbols.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[Benjamin Smedberg]

It turns out that we have archived PDB files for Firefox 200x releases. We should upload these PDBs to symbols.mozilla.org for JIT debugging on Windows.

Fx 2004/2005/2006 are currently located at http://fs.office.mozilla.org/public/QA/Talkback%20Symbols/

Ted, can you put these into a symbol-server directory structure and tar it up and then reassign this bug to IT to upload these files to symbols_ffx? If it's possible to generate a .txt file that maps these files that would be great, though not strictly necessary.

Ok, uploaded here:
http://people.mozilla.com/~tmielczarek/ff2004-6.symbols.tar.bz2 (~65Mb)

This tarball should be extracted in /mnt/netapp/breakpad/symbols_ffx on stage, as user ffxbld.

Done, extracted stuff in /mnt/netapp/breakpad/symbols_ffx as the ffxbld user.

Anecdotal evidence suggests that Visual Studio has a problem with the uppercase debug identifiers here.  (WinDbg works fine, for whatever reason.)  I'd like to try symlinking lowercase versions of them to see if that fixes the problem.  Could you run this shell command as fxbld in /mnt/netapp/breakpad/symbols_ffx ?

cat firefox-2.0.0.* | perl -F'/' -ane 'system "ln -s $F[0]/$F[1] $F[0]/".lc($F[1])'

Done.
