Notes

• Following both the Win64 Machine Setup on the wiki, and the build prerequisites on MDN.

  I figure that we don't need some of the packages on the first image, so I'm installing dependencies as I go. ffledgling gave me access to one of his images, but I may or may not use it pending on the difficulty of installing the current dependencies. It seems managable so far. I may decide to follow mrrrgn's linux64 script, which seems to be relatively clean. If mozharness ends up being cross platform in terms of configuration, I can probably reuse a lot of it.

• Running on an m3.large instance. This will probably change to a m3.xlarge instance once I have all the setup done.

  jonasfj> amiyaguchi, for development just launch one... we like c3.xlarge or c3.2xlarge for building... just use whatever you think you'll use in production...

• Ran out of space on the m3.large instance, which is limited to 35GBs. Followed the directions on how to expand the ebs-volume

Where are the buildprops.json made? I need a way to create them before they are made so I can actually do stuff.

You must run the mozharness script inside of a bash environment that has been started from a cmd, not powershell. Otherwiset the path environmental variable for %system32% doesn't get replaced.

export SCCACHE_DIR to use local directory, which doesn't use boto for uploads. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1000718

A minor update with progress on this issue.

With the image I got from the relops (spot-y-2008-2015-08-13-08-57, a try image), I've managed to get closer to a working builder. Currently, I am still unable to build anything successfully.

I'll outline a few of the work arounds I've had to make in order to get a semi working build.

• Update mozilla-build from 1.9 to 1.10
  This resolves a puzzling issue where mach configure (and in turn mach build) fails to read the nightly mozconfig pulled from browser/config/mozconfigs/win32/nightly during a mozharness build. The error looks like the following when run with start-shell-msvc-2013.bat.

  0:07.47 client.mk:117: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?). Stop.

When started with start-shell-l10n.bat, configuration succeeds, but compilation fails since none of the compilers have been added to the path.

• Disable remote sscache (to a certain extent)
  This involves setting SCCACHE_DIR= to a local directory, otherwise boto will fail due to authorization errors. This is probably due to the lack of a .boto with valid keys, which can otherwise be solved later.
