== To Do == - upgrade servers to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - == Admin Activity == === 2015-01-11 === - Cleaned out trac spam === 2015-01-26 === - First commit requiring build in a month had same problem of getting stuck on "archiving artifacts". Stopped and restarted build manually from Jenkins and new failure: Slave not starting - Jenkins would log into VM and sart slave but then "waiting for Phase 2" retries timed out (max of 11 it seems) - rebooted VM machine did not fix problem - Looking at event logs a warning was being raised regularly on starting a child java process but could not tell what the problem was - Looking at loaded services slave was loaded but no running. started it but it stopped immediately - started the slave manually from command line. It started but then windows firewall popped up that it was blocking something - clicked unblock and then everything ran - after completing the build I rebooted the machine for good measure. === 2014-11-01 === - Ongoing problem with windows builds via jenkins getting stuck on "archiving artifacts" - tried to update slave-agent.jnlp and that didn't work - renamed C:\Jenkins to C:\jenkins-old - deleted slave from jenkins master - re-installed java on slave - recreated slave with new name on master - re-installed slave-agent.jnlp - re-connected build jobs to new slave - ran builds with success. - Hope that updating to latest slave agent will fix problem with stuck windows builds. Needs monitoring - Note that danse.chem seems to have a clock that is running fast and ntpd is not updating it. Needs looking at see ticket #274 === 2014-10-30 === - Updated danse and danse2 (apt-get update/upgrade) === 2014-09-27 === - Problem with ssh to danse machines after reboot following updates. - For danse.chem seems to have been a problem with fstab (AJJ fat fingers most likely cause) which prevented the reboot after updates. - Unable to ssh to danse2.chem even before update - Bill Gurley rebooted machines on 2014-09-29 and solved problem. === 2014-09-09 === - Installed bumps on danse and danse2 to fix Ubuntu builds - Could not install on WinXP vm due to compiler issues. === 2014-08-27 === - Problems with the windows build not running from jenkins - corrected time on danse.chem and this seems to have fixed the failure of the build to start. - The time servers used on ubuntu 10 (danse.chem) seem to no longer exist. Updated ntp.conf to use the same as ubuntu 12 (danse2.chem) - Build now working again - updated danse2.chem (apt-get update/upgrade) - updated danse.chem (apt-get update/upgrade)
