WINNT 5.2 comm-central lightning nightly failed with the very same error today. Could you upgrade it too?

Comment 3

[Philipp Kewisch [:Fallen] [:📆][:🧩]]

I've changed the path to use python2.7. I might need to install some additional modules, we'll see about that in the next build run. I'd appreciate if you could monitor the builds and file a new bug or comment on this one once its through in case there are some python modules missing.

Installed pywin32, lets hope it works. Thanks for the report!

Comment 6

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Win32 comm-aurora lightning nightly build succeeded. Win32 comm-central lightning nightly build failed. Seems it still uses the old Python version 2.5:

Probably needs a clobber only. I've started deleting files, one of the next builds will probably work.

Win32 comm-central lightning nightly build still fails with the error from Comment 6: https://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=CalendarTrunk/1351246356.1351248056.23116.gz#err3

Comment 9

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Todays error message indicates that only Python 2.5 is installed / found on the server: https://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=CalendarTrunk/1351591200.1351592340.5383.gz#err0

Aurora is green, central has moved to Thunderbird build infra. I think we can close this bug?

Comment 11

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Error shows on https://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=Calendar-Aurora

Maybe we can just stop the builders now that bug 793628 is activated for comm-aurora?

Comment 12

[Philipp Kewisch [:Fallen] [:📆][:🧩]]

I've stopped the aurora builders on our infra and removed the *-xpi directories, therefore this should be WFM with the new infra.
