557195 - release snippet uploading is busted since bug 511967 finished landing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

One of the patches from 511967 changed the user which we upload to aus2 with. This broke the release 'updates' builder, because the directory which it uploads to can only be written to by 'cltbld'.

I'll need to fix or workaround this for the 3.6.3plugin1 build today.

Dmoore created a 'snippets' group on aus2-staging that both cltbld and ffxbld are part of. That group now owns the /opt/aus2/snippets/staging directory, so we're all done here.

We probably need to adjust the permissions on /opt/aus2/snippets/backup, too.

I adjusted the permissions on the 'backup' directory, too.

This is still busted -- it failed in staging today. pushsnip will fail because ffxbld doesn't have access to /opt/aus2/incoming. Don't know what the right fix here is. If we can't come up with something before 3.6.4 starts we'll have to do the pushsnip for the test snippets manually there.

Attachment: use cltbld user for AUS server for releases

This is kind of crappy, because it creates another difference between nightlies and releases, but it's the best thing to do for now IMHO. Long term, it could be good to use ffxbld, but that will require more fiddling with permissions in the live snippet dirs -- something I wasn't prepared to do the morning we're supposed to start a release.

I'll land this along with the release config tomorrow morning.

I changed the permissions on /opt/aus2/snippets/* back to cltbld:cltbld, now that we're uploading as them again.
