This page documents how http://buildbox/ was set up for use in EclipseCon 2009's Hands-On: Using the new Common Builder for Push-Button PDE Builds tutorial.
Contents
Acquire virtual server image
- depending on where you are on the planet, this may be considered illegal. You could also create your own image using VMWare Converter.
- the details below apply to the "deadmoo" Mac OS X 10.4.1 image; using something newer, YMMV
- update to 10.4.5 using Mac OS X 10.4.5 Combo Update.
Install software
- find a terminal under Finder > Go > Applications > Utilities > Terminal, and drag it into the desktop or launcher bar for convenience.
- open Safari and go to http://support.apple.com/downloads/Java_2_SE_5_0_Release_1. Download and install.
- get Eclipse 3.4.2: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.4.2-200902111700/
- unpack into ~/Desktop, then drag the eclipse folder into /Applications.
- run Eclipse - hopefully you won't see this: http://imagebin.ca/view/X0k13i1x.html
(At this point I'm stuck, so everything below here is copied from the Fedora Linux server install doc.)
+ open a terminal, run as root
yum install -y ant-contrib file /usr/share/java/ant-contrib.jar
+ open a terminal, run as root
yum install -y java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel cvs svn perl curl wget Xvfb vnc vnc-server
+ restart (can run the following as root)
shutdown -r now
Configure Hudson to start automatically
+ as root, run the following to fetch the latest Hudson
mkdir -p /opt/hudson; cd /opt/hudson; wget https://hudson.dev.java.net/files/documents/2402/128546/hudson.jar
+ create the file /etc/init.d/hudson -- do NOT forget the "&" or your system will hang on restart!
#/bin/bash # chkconfig: 2345 20 80 # description: runs Hudson java -jar /opt/hudson/hudson.jar &
+ as root, run
chkconfig --add hudson; chkconfig --level 2345 hudson on chmod 755 /etc/init.d/hudson /etc/init.d/hudson &
+ once started, open firefox or from console
links http://localhost:8080/
+ restart (can run the following as root)
shutdown -r now
+ if anything goes wrong, hit F2 on reboot to enter grub menu, and add "single" to the grub commands to start in the single-user, networkless runlevel mode [1].
+ on restart, verify Hudson is started by opening the above URL
Run a build in Eclipse
+ fire up Eclipse 3.4.2, fetch o.e.d.c.releng project from :pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipe.org:/cvsroot/technology/org.eclipse.dash/athena/org.eclipse.dash.commonbuilder/org.eclipse.dash.common.releng
+ fetch gef.releng and basebuilder M5 via pcf file in org.eclipse.dash.common.releng/pcf
+ open gef.releng, configure build.properties to correct java and Eclipse platform settings. For example
dependencyURLs=http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.5M5-200902021535/eclipse-SDK-3.5M5-linux-gtk.tar.gz (or -ppc, or -x86_64, etc.) JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java JAVA14_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java JAVADOC14_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java/bin
+ select build.xml, right-click and Run as > Ant Build
+ to kill a bad build in progress, open a terminal and run
pkill -f N200903
Run a build in Hudson
+ open http://localhost:8080, click New Job + select 'free-style software project' + configure a job that runs the following script
export BUILDTYPE="${BUILDTYPE}"
export EXTRAFLAGS="-javaHome /usr/lib/jvm/java ${EXTRAFLAGS}"
. /home/builduser/workspace/org.eclipse.dash.common.releng/hudson/gef-3.5.x-nightly.sh
+ define two build parameters
BUILDTYPE (default value N, a nightly build) EXTRAFLAGS (default value blank, no extra flags
+ save the configuration, then click Build Now to start a build
+ see also a sample config.xml which stores the UI configuration, and build.eclipse.org's gef-3.5.x-nightly config.xml
Remote Access
+ set up the VBox instance to use BOTH Host Interface (192.168.2.*) and NAT (10.0.2.*). For more on NAT, see this blog
- +
- +
+ access the vserver via SSH on :22, or the Hudson web service on :8080
+ to save memory, edit /etc/inittab so that the server will start on runlevel 3 (text login) instead of 5 (graphical login, with X started)
