Sean Busbey created HBASE-20162:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [nightly] depending on pipeline execution we sometimes
refer to the wrong workspace
Key: HBASE-20162
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20162
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: test
Reporter: Sean Busbey
Assignee: Sean Busbey
we set BASEDIR at the top of our pipeline to point at the component checkout
within WORKSPACE.
but!
a) at that point WORKSPACE is the workspace for the launching task
b) sometimes our parallel executions get a task with a different local
WORKSPACE to allow for coexisting on the same build host
c) when this happens our parallel stages are referring to some other absolute
path on the host
d) in most cases we're referring to dev-support files like e.g. the nightly
build script or machine info script that are the same across branches so things
are fine if we aren't running at the same time as a job that's overwritting them
e) we also refer to the Dockerfile this way, so weird bugs I'm sure.
f) we build the source tarball from here, so that's probably broken subtly
g) sometimes that other directory _doesn't exist at all_ and we fail with
confusing messages about stuff not found
