*Fail to fetch bundles from Orbit - symptom - java net url timeout in build failure message. Start a new build -&gt; www.eclipse.org timeouts are intermittent.
+
*"Error occurred while transforming repository" usually means that the bundle couldn't be fetched from Orbit. For example
+
<pre>Build M20090825-1330 (Timestamp: 200908251330):  The following error occurred while executing this line:

Since our build runs in an IBM lab, the http gets for orbit bundles from eclipse.org are usually redirected from download.eclipse.org to fullmoon.ottawa.ibm.com by the foundation. This redirection can be avoided by changing the url in the orbit.map from download.eclipse.org to www.eclipse.org/external. Sometimes it will take a day or so for the internal mirror to get the latest orbit build.
+
 
+
*Missing dependancies due to erroneous map file submission.&nbsp; Check that the map file refers to a version of a project that exists in the repo. If the version of a bundle in cvs doesn't match the one in the map files, ask team to resubmit and start a new build.
+
*SDKs fail to provision due to missing dependancies. There are releng logs on each test results page of the build that provide logs of the from the call to the p2 director to provision the zips. The Equinox team is helpful in finding the cause of the problem. See this page for an example. http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.5-200906111540/buildlogs.php
+
*Missing dependancies due to errors in Manifest or missing dependancies in manifest. In the both cases, the error sent to the releng list will look something like http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/platform-releng-dev/msg09778.html
+
*Dependancies expressed in manifest and feature don't match. This means that the p2 director cannot resolve the dependencies for the product it is trying to build. The resultant zips for that platform are 0 size. For instance, see bug [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=258489 | bug 258489]. Also, you can see the .log files that the directory built by following the ''Release Engineering build logs'' link off the ''Test results'' build page.

== Missing test results ==
+
 
+
*The test results page of the build isn't updated until all the test results have completed. To see what machines are currently being used for tests look the the following directory. There will be marker files that correspond to the machine operating system and build number.
+
<pre>-bash-3.00$ ls /home/users/releng/buildTools/markers/*.marker
+
eclipse-macosx-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-rhelws5-6.0-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-rhelws5-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-rhelws5-perf-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-sled10-perf-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-win32xp-6.0-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-win32xp-M20090824-0800.marker
+
eclipse-win32xp-perf-M20090824-0800.marker
+
</pre>
+
If you cat the marker files you can see the hostname of the machine that corresponds to the marker file
+
<pre>-bash-3.00$ cat /home/users/releng/buildTools/markers/*.marker
+
0=lb6mac
+
0=ejlnx2
+
0=ejlnx1
+
0=eplnx2
+
0=eplnx1

0=ejwin2

The windows machines run tests via rsh. The linux and mac machines run tests via ssh. The windows machines need to be rebooted every so often. The old build artifacts are cleaned automatically by cron jobs.
+
 
+
*The windows tests machines crash every so often. The event logs don't indicate that anything is wrong with the build. They are on the KVM next to the Eclipse rack in lab, on number 5 and 6. They can just be rebooted and logged into as the build user. I usually reboot these machines once a week so this doesn't happen.
