813515 - don't create index files in partner-repacks directory on stage

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Release Engineering :: Release Automation: Other, defect, P3)

Description

[Carsten Book [:Tomcat]]

when i go to http://stage.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/17.0-candidates/build2/partner-repacks/ i get the "thanks for the interest, We aren't quite finished qualifying Firefox 17.0 yet" so i guess its now linking to ftp.mozilla.

Can we bring it back to stage like we did before always

thanks!

So, I verified this was due to our index.html block hanging around all the partner-repack dir's.

With Tomcats r+ in IRC I did a find -name index.html, and then an rm -f {}; based on that list, in the -candidates dir.

We should resolve this going forward somehow though (even if thats just to hand out ftp://ftp.m.o links in the future)

For clarity, I *only* removed the index.html's in the partner-repacks/** subdir of the candidate dir for build2

I though that we put those files intentionally, don't we? Maybe we should we skip partner-repacks directory?

yeah we should just skip partner-repacks i think. The reason for this bug was that we point partners to stage because there are the repacks available after creation and partners normally need some time to qa a repack etc.

also for the history we always kept partner-repacks open on stage like http://stage.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/16.0-candidates/build1/partner-repacks/
