Description Yi Zhao 2016-09-14 01:37:32 UTC
There is no build-appliance image for 2.2 M3 rc1 in autobuilder public directory:
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/pub/releases/yocto-2.2_M3.rc1/build-appliance/
Comment 1 Joshua Lock 2016-09-14 16:09:47 UTC
The PublishArtifacts buildstep is looking for *.zip but a local build of build-appliance-image doesn't generate any zip files…
Comment 2 Joshua Lock 2016-09-14 17:04:11 UTC
This seems to be an issue with the build-appliance-image recipe, no zip file is generated when I `bitbake build-appliance-image`
Comment 3 Juro Bystricky 2016-09-14 22:37:16 UTC
The problem was caused by the commit:
def348533aac9d6be06f912dd245d50dcc406816: image.bbclass: Put image_complete under sstate control
as the variable IMGDEPLOYDIR was re-defined. The actual BA zip image was actually generated, but was placed in a wrong folder.

Sent a better patch to the mailing list.
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2016-September/126614.html

Tested with local.conf containing:

MACHINE = "qemux86-64"

also with and without:
INHERIT += "rm_work"

Merged in oe-core 5ac0604fdc7d5b783011c43d476210b427b5dae0.
Comment 7 Yi Zhao 2016-10-26 01:23:15 UTC
Verified wit 2.2 RC4 build.
