Buildbot

Folks,

Mateusz and I would like to do some preliminary setup work on buildbot tests
(for FDO initially). My plan is to do this on "xblade14-2 (198.202.74.219)".
For the time being I will make every effort to keep this to a local
environment so it will be easily moved, removed, etc as needed in the future.
Are there any objections?

Also, Howard, could you create an LDAP account for Mateusz?

Best regards,

Hi,

This is my first writing on SAC list, so I'd like to say Hello!.

Today, I'd like to do some first steps with buildbot on the xblade.
Obviously, I will need to install some software there.

What is the procedure and policy regarding installing it?
Should I contact the administrator?
Or I can build & install it in OSGeo $HOME,
for example under custom locations:
$HOME/usr
$HOME/usr/bin
$HOME/usr/lib
...

Here is what is required to install in order to run buildbot:

* Python 2.3 or 2.4
* Twisted for Python 2.3 or 2.4 - http://twistedmatrix.com

Cheers

On geodata.telascience.org I have installed a series of well
known software packages into /usr/local/, a list is here:

http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Geodata_processing_at_telascience.org#Installed_Software

I guess that $HOME should not be used since this is an
NFS home.

But I am not the admin there...

Please (someone) add the policy to our wiki page:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/SAC_Service_Status

thanks
Markus

Mateusz,

Yum reports that python 2.4 and python-twisted are already installed, so
we should be good to go.

Markus,

Thank you, I should try to use Wiki first :slight_smile:

NFS home.

I understand.

Frank,

Great!
I'm testing the Buildbot installation in my own env. first.
I've started to have some successful results :slight_smile:

I think I'll try to test it tonight or tomorrow on the xblade.

Cheers

Frank,

Mateusz,

once working I would be interested to get GRASS on top
of that (since it only needs PROJ and GDAL as minimum
requirement). I am not in a hurry, just to express my
interest.

Thanks for pushing the Buildbot installation forward!

Yes. I consulted with Frank (I'm only a technical staff)
and "the intention is to expand it's use to various projects".

Thanks for pushing the Buildbot installation forward!

My pleasure.
