The mac daily verification build is failing to build. I'll attach the macperl and buildnglayout logs to the bug. This is a blocker for the mac.

reassigning to jj instead of cls.

Putting on dogfood+ radar.

By doing a "cvs checkout" in the mozilla/mailnews directory followed by a build where I didn't delete the existing tree (depend/clobber in mac automation), the mozilla build succeeded and the commercial build is still building. However, I think we still have to discover the root cause of the problem that it isn't pulling and/or building everything in mozilla/mailnews. removing blocker status since we apparently have a workaround.

i just ran the pull section of buildcentral (name of the main verif/tinderbox script) and witnessed the same behavior as this morning: no error, no timeout, a few warnings (attached screen shot for the record), but mailnews is incomplete (see second attachment) Obviously Tinderboxen don't experience this problem since they're all green at the moment. can anybody else try to run pullnglayout.pl on a fresh tree and see if this can be reproduced on a different machine ? I'm running out of ideas.

fixed. this is a MacCVS low memory situation. When this happens, MacCVS simply stopped pulling "SeaMonleyAll" module before its end. No timeout returned to MacPerl, no error in the message window, no alert... I had to trace the build script to see this with my own eyes and notice that the free heap was around 50K at the time. Increasing MacCVS memory partition from 5 to 8 MB fixed the problem and the entire tree now gets pulled without a glitch. This is still a mystery to me since all Tinderboxen are configured identically (5 MB for MacCVS, 256 MB machines) and don't have this problem. maccvs team: Should I log a separate "MacCVS bug"? Would switching to 2.5 help ?

no failure yesterday or today. verified.
