This page contains general information about the Python BuildBot setup and issues.

[http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/ Here are the current BuildBot results.]

There are several unstable tests and other issues. These are not problems with BuildBot, but rather are problems with Python and/or the environment it is built/run in.

Platform

Version

Issue

Mac OS X 10.3

getaddrinfo configure check fails sometimes

cygwin

2.5

test_bsddb3 crashes interpreter (old version of BSD DB?), test_curses, test_socketserver, test_time fail

Debian

2.5

test_sqlite fails ia64 due to a compiler bug, test_fork1, test_wait[34] fail on hppa (crash), test_socket fails on sparc likely due to /etc/services configuration

All

2.[45]

Berkeley DB 3.2 is killed when running test_bsddb3, test_bsddb fails

All

2.[45]

test_socket{,ssl,_server} fail if another test instance is running

We need to add more platforms to the BuildBot farm. If you have one of these machines you are willing to run BuildBot on, please contact python-dev@python.org:

It might also be beneficial to run on older versions of operating systems or others not mentioned above. Feel free to contact us if you would like to offer another type of system.

Installing a buildslave


You need to fetch the latest [http://buildbot.sf.net buildbot source]. It requires Python and Twisted.

A buildslave also needs subversion, and it needs to be able to build Python.

Unpack and install it.

Create a new user "buildbot" (highly recommended)

% su - buildbot

% mkdir buildarea

% buildbot slave pwd/buildarea dinsdale.python.org:9020 slavename slavepasswd

You'll need to get someone to create the slavename/slavepasswd on dinsdale.python.org before doing this. Talk to someone like Martin, Anthony or Neal to do this.

Then edit buildarea/info/admin and buildarea/info/host to set them appropriately.

Finally, start buildbot with:

% buildbot start ~/buildarea
