Debian wheezy (7.0) OS install

Install minimal system from netinst CD (attached when VDS is created on phoenix) Config options:

  • In the "role" selection select "ssh server" and "system utilities" only.
  • The whole disc default partitioning is fine
  • The base user the install insists on creating should be the netsurf user.
  • Boot loader in MBR

Once installed:

  • install sudo package and add netsurf user to sudo group
  • edit /etc/inittab comment pty 3 through 6 and uncomment serial T0

Packaged Setup for Debian wheezy (7.0)

on master jenkins use "manage nodes" to create new node. Ensure "remote fs root" is set to /var/lib/jenkins add variable JENKINS_HOME set to /var/lib/jenkins

As superuser:

  • create jenkins user

adduser --system --group --home /var/lib/jenkins/ --disabled-login jenkins

  • Add CI server repo to slave apt sources

echo "deb http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/debian/ wheezy/amd64/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/netsurf-browser.list

  • update repos

apt-get update

  • install ns-ci-slave package. accept the large package list and the unsigned package install for gcovr and ns-ci-slave

apt-get install ns-ci-slave

  • edit /etc/default/ns-ci-slave to set the correct url and secret parameters
  • If toolchains are to be built on the node ensure /opt is setup correctly

mkdir -p /opt/netsurf
chown jenkins:jenkins /opt/netsurf

  • become jenkins user

su -s/bin/bash - jenkins

  • create ssh keypair (accept defaults - no password)

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "netsurf@cislave10.netsurf-browser.org"

  • copy .ssh/id_rsa.pub from slave to jenkins master node and append to /home/netsurf/.ssh/authorized_keys

scp /home/jenkins/.ssh/id_rsa.pub netsurf@ci.netsurf-browser.org:cislave10_id_rsa.pub

  • exit jenkins user shell
  • start slave daemon

/etc/init.d/ns-ci-slave start

Manual Setup of Debian wheezy (7.0)

required packages

use apt to install all these. The Netsurf repository has the necessary updated packages in it and can be accessed by doing the following:

  • Add CI server repo to slave apt sources

echo "deb http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/debian/ wheezy/amd64/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list

  • update repos

apt-get update

    • run jenkins-slave.sh
    • create new screen tab
    • create ssh keypair (accept defaults - no password)

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "netsurf@cislave0.netsurf-browser.org"

    • copy .ssh/id_rsa.pub from slave to jenkins master node and append to /home/netsurf/.ssh/authorized_keys

scp ci.netsurf-browser.org:.ssh/id_rsa.pub .id_rsa.pub
cat id_rsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys

    • copy .ssh/id_rsa.pub from master node to slave and append to /home/netsurf/.ssh/authorized_keys
    • create reverse-ssh.sh (change tunnel port number!)

#!/bin/sh

ssh -R 22224:localhost:22 netsurf@ci.netsurf-browser.org 'bash -c "while true; do echo .; sleep 60; done"'

    • run reverse-ssh.sh
    • on the master create a shell script to use the ssh tunnel connection, thus firewalls etc are moot as long as the slave can connect to the master

ssh netsurf@localhost -p 22223
