Hi Mark, Thanks again for the hint... I have been monitoring the Latest Build Status page at http://build.webkit.org/one_box_per_builder and it appears that there hasn't been a successful build for a while, at least the status shows that the last 8 build attempts failed. The Status page shows that the last successful build was on trunk 27090. I would have greater confidence that the WebKit source would build successfully on my machine if WebKit Org were able to build a successful target themselves. Hence, I will make another attempt to build locally when the Build Status shows that a successful build has been achieved by WebKit Org.
You're confusing a test failure on the buildbot with a failure to compile from source. "Failed" indicates that one of the following things failed to complete 100% successfully: SVN checkout, build of WebKit, JavaScriptCore regression tests, WebKit regression tests. The "Waterfall" view at <http://build.webkit.org/waterfall> represents this visually in a much more understandable fashion IMO.
The first three builders listed (trunk-mac-ppc-release, trunk-mac- intel-release, trunk-mac-intel-debug) are currently failing three tests. As running tests happens *after* WebKit is built and would not happen if WebKit failed to build, we can conclude that WebKit does currently build. If the build shows up as failed and says "compile- release" or "compile-debug", then the release or debug builds are do not compile.
Also I'm using the Command Line to build my local target. I have examined the log that was produced by the Terminal when I attempted a local build and I couldn't find anything that would indicate that an error occurred during the build process apart from the comments that I sent you below.
Look for the first mention of the step named in the list of commands that failed. Eg., do a build, copy the failed command line ("CopyStringsFile /Users/samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/ JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/Resources/English.lproj/ InfoPlist.strings English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings" from your previous email), hit Cmd-F and search for it (with "Wrap Around" ticked). That should take you right to the execution of the command. The error output will be somewhere shortly after.
