Fragile automated builds on lizard
Originally created by @intrigeri on #10334 (Redmine)
We’ve seen many build failures recently. Almost all of them happen on isobuilder2, I had a look and it’s not surprising things fail:
$ df
df: `/tmp/tails-build.4ZSfX1Cx': Stale NFS file handle
df: `/tmp/tails-build.9zHHWL68': Stale NFS file handle
[...]
tmpfs tmpfs 8.8G 5.6G 3.3G 64% /tmp/tmpfs.MtxhVedc
tmpfs tmpfs 8.8G 782M 8.1G 9% /tmp/tmpfs.NQz5b14m
$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 8992 6962 2029 0 10 6487
-/+ buffers/cache: 464 8527
Swap: 0 0 0
So there are two problems there:
- I don’t know what the NFS error come from, I see a NFS line in fstab, I thought we were not supposed to have any such thing anymore, but perhaps I’m confused.
- The build wrapper doesn’t always clean up properly.
I’ve rebooted isobuilder2 so the avalanche of notifications should stop.
