checking_out_layers

Hi,

BUILD: 1.8_M2.rc2: 22c38e2d8a058619e3d05534b5e830b750aa4241
ENVIRONMENT: Ubuntu 14.10 x86_64
STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 
  
Start toaster in project mode (TC: 1060)
Create a new project with release set on "Local Yocto Project"

In project configuration page click "Import layer" link and add "meta-selftest" layer as following:

Layer name: meta-selftest
Git repository URL: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
Revision: HEAD
Click on the button: "Import and add to project"
Go back to project configuration page and check if the layer was successfully imported into project
Start a core-image-minimal
Toaster should be able to checkout on all the project layers and should be able to successfully build the image


EXPECTED OUTCOME: 
  
 Toaster must be able to build images with new layers added into project.

ACTUAL OUTCOME:

Toaster freezes in "Checking out layers". See attached screen shot.
Also, in backend console the following line appears every one second:
"DEBUG 2015-02-04 17:49:34,011 localhostbecontroller: Waiting bitbake server to start"

Full backend console lines:

Toaster is now running. You can stop it with Ctrl-C

Pushed for review on

The fix consists in properly displaying the failure of the server to start.


The failure is caused by an improperly configured layer. Helping the user fix this particular issue is beyond this particular bug.
