420010 - Focus problems on qm-win2k3-01

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Justin Dolske [:Dolske]]

The usual problem... Popup tests are failing, so there's a focus issue on the box. Command prompt needs close, minimized, or whatever is usually done.

Nothing is in focus and cmd.exe is already minimized.

Closed running buildbot slave, machine still running very slowly. Confirmed buildbot minimized, not focus window problem as suspected in irc. Decided to reboot. Got error dialog box about xpcshell.exe on reboot. Re-rebooting.

3rd time seemed somewhat better. Slave started and connected to master, now running minimized. (Made sure that RDC used millions of colours to keep the tests happy).

Per instructions, did a force build to just make sure all was going ok. Master could see/ping slave, and had jobs pending but not allocating to slave, so I restarted master. Now seems to be going ok.

Leaving bug open until current run completes.

After kicking off a build with a dummy checkin, the first build failed with:

...

I kicked it again, and it's been building for much longer, so we'll see how that goes.

Focus problem seems fixed. A couple of tests are failing, but I think they're test problems and not box problems.
