Re: [wtp-releng] Massive JUnit failures prevent email notification

[Neil Hauge <neil.hauge@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the additional info.   We already ruled out the jar changes as the possible cause, so no need to dig into that.  We've isolated the failures to some code of ours that we moved (from one plugin to another) that allows us to read in different versions of an XML resource.

Thanks Neil. You can, if you'd like, leave them enabled in HEAD, so you 
can still do tests of a fix by manually kicking off a HEAD build. 

I did just now, today, switch our scripts to use IBM's Java 6 Service 
Release 5 ... it had been SR3, and has been SR3 for a very long time, so a 
change in VM wouldn't account for the "sudden" change in behavior. (That 
is, I would not expect moving to SR5 to "fix" it, but wanted to mention 
this, in case it was some how magically fixed). 

Is this still the XML configuration issue? You did also change JPA jars 
too, right? I'll take a closer look at this now, if that'd be helpful.

Yep.  We'll go ahead and comment out the failing suites for now.  They 
do only fail on the build machine, so that is making things more 
tricky.  Hoping to reproduce locally on Linux with IBM JDK, but haven't 
tested this yet.

The more observant among us have noticed that email notifications from 
    

our 
  

builds have not been sent recently. (Thanks Carl). 

This is because there is an error from the mail server reporting that 
    

"the 
  

message is too large". (And the typical limit is 20 Meg!). 

I think the messages are too large because of the massive JUnit failures 
    

in some of the suites. 

Perhaps those suites could be disabled until they are fixed? Do they 
happen only on build machine? 

There is probably a way we can fix the message output so it is slimmed 
down for massive JUnit failures ... but, I'd prefer not to do that extra 
    

work if this is a temporary, rare, and transient problem. 

Thanks,
