gary_posterbuildbot-slave is working once you change the sources to the standard precise ones (from the ec2 ones) and update/upgrade so you get a newer lxc than 45, but buildbot-master fails because of a syntax error in lpbuildbot that Brad and I missed ("descriptionDone['cleaned','previous','lxc','containers']))" should be "descriptionDone=['cleaned','previous','lxc','containers']))".  Fixing and then continuing to see how we are doi12:06

gary_posterbac benji gmb call in 2 https://talkgadget.google.com/hangouts/_/extras/canonical.com/goldenhorde12:08
gary_posterbac benji yoo hoo12:11
gary_postergmb, confirmed that I just approved next Mon & Tues12:28
gmbgary_poster: Thankyou kindly.12:28
gary_posterof course12:29
gary_posternotifications work a lot better on one screen.  sound would be nice too though; I wonder why XChat stopped doing what I had configured...I'll look12:29
gary_posterwell, sound is working again...who knows for how long12:39
bacgary_poster: i've got a potential mentor for frankban but he doesn't want to start until after the 12.04 release...which is not that far off12:49
gary_posterbac, great! fine with me.  If we have someone coming along sooner, great, but as you say, the release is not far off12:50
bacyep.  it is raphael and i think he'd be great12:51
gary_posteroh, agree, cool13:02
gary_posterjuju expose didn't work on master.  had to do it manually.  Mildly concerning.13:18
bacgary_poster: thanks for the details of your setup14:20
gary_posterbac, welcome14:20
gary_posterbenji, bac, gmb, TESTS PASSED, GREEN BUILDBOT! *\o/* http://ec2-50-16-120-159.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8010/waterfall14:26
gary_posterwill run again14:27
benjigary_poster: great!14:27
benjiA++++, will run again14:27
gmbWoot.14:27
bac34 minutes?14:27
benjibac: pretty much: "Elapsed38 mins, 36 secs"14:28
gmbWow. That seems... short.14:28
bacbenji: oh, i saw this "elapsedTime=2075.273179" which must omit some startup14:29
gary_posteractually, I've been using the elapsed time, from http://ec2-50-16-120-159.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8010/builders/lucid_lp/builds/0/steps/shell_9 in this case, so 34 minutes is true.  that is a bit suspicious, I must admit--it cuts down 20 minutes from our previous runs14:31
gary_posterthe build is already gone so I can't see what happened last time, but I'll look after this next run14:32
gary_postercall off the parties...next run took 14 minutes and the testr directory looks...wrong somehow14:53
* benji takes down the disco ball.14:54
gary_poster:-)14:59
gary_postertestr's reporting leaves a lot to be desired15:00
gmbgary_poster: It's not something to do with testr's splitting up of the tests per-core, is it?15:17
gmbOr are we futzing that somehow?15:17
gary_postergmb, you mean, the reporting has something to do with testr's splitting of tests?  I don't think so.  We aren't futzing with that part of things.  What I thought I understood before about what testr does seems to show nothing now.15:23
gary_posterthe test run file now only seems to show a start time and a stop time15:23
gmbgary_poster: No, I mean the short runtimes.15:23
gmbActually, that makes no sense. Ignore me gary_poster .15:24
gary_postergmb, oh, well, I had that analysis earlier from runs that both frankban and I made that I was getting test run times of 4 hours/number of cores plus 20 minutes15:25
gary_posterso eight cores was 50-ish minutes15:25
gary_posternot 38 and not 1415:25
gmbRight. Like I said, my thinking didn't actually make sense :)15:25
gary_poster:-) gotcha, np15:26
gary_posterSomething has gone seriously wrong in our setup :-( runs are not producing output, and now lxc are stopping because they are unable to access dhclient.leases in the container...and maybe for other reasons?15:53
gary_posterugh :-(15:54
gary_posterI'm going to kill this instance and try a newer version of precise. Maybe the update hosed things somehow? :-/16:02
gary_posterour entropy hack is not installed?17:45
gary_posterah.  I don't have the newest version of the setup file. :-(17:46
bacgary_poster: have time for a quick chat in a bit?17:53
gary_posterbac, sure17:57
gary_posterbac, https://talkgadget.google.com/hangouts/_/extras/canonical.com/goldenhorde when you are ready17:58
bacgary_poster: i'm trying but google is caught in an oauth redirection loop and i can't get in.  let me try firefox18:00
gary_posterok18:00
bacgary_poster: i'm trying to test my change for testr init.  i've not run a launchpad buildbot on ec2 in a really long time, if ever (my testing originally was just using pyflakes).  does the slave typically show pending for the length of time setuplxc runs?19:53
gary_posterbac, yes19:55
gary_posterbac, I've discovered the problem for test runs btw19:56
bacgary_poster: so, a couple of hours of churning?19:56
gary_posterbac, on the 8 core, about an hour IIRC19:56
bacgary_poster: ugh, i did a single core19:56
gary_postermm, probably 2 or 3 then yeah19:56
baci figured i didn't need to see the tests run to completion but just get started19:56
bacgary_poster: what was the bug?19:57
gary_posterbac, the new zope.testing egg we made no longer gives the right output for --subunit --list-tests (cue my previous email saying how forking means you need to write tests...)19:58
gary_posterIf you switch to the p4 version then it works19:58
bacergh19:58
gary_posterbut without the p5 fixes of course19:58
gary_posteryeah19:58
gary_posterso we need a p6 :-)19:58
benjiIf anyone would like to review https://code.launchpad.net/~benji/launchpad/bug-963463/+merge/100514 I would appreciate it.20:36
bacbenji: i will20:47
benjibac: thanks20:48
bacbenji: only question is whether a helper function would be warranted since you repeat yourself thrice20:50
benjibac: good question; I could go either way.  I think I'll add one.20:51
bacyou are Dr Dry20:52
bacbenji: done20:53
benjiheh20:55
* bac walks the dog21:02
