seemingly random mac scipy failures #7

Open gidden opened 10 years ago

E.g., one run on a PR produced: http://submit-1.batlab.org/nmi/results/details?runID=235435

while another produced: http://submit-1.batlab.org/nmi/results/details?runID=235585

note this is why pyne/#372 is failing, @Pshriwise and @elliottbiondo

crbates commented 10 years ago

@gidden I think it's correlated with which machine the full build used to do the fast build was done on. I've looked at it and the full build passed last night on exec-19 but then fast builds running on exec-19 have failed but the fast builds from yesterday on exec-18 all succeeded.

Oh... that would be awful.

scopatz commented 10 years ago

Not surprising - but awful.

gidden commented 10 years ago

Sigh... terrible. There are only two mac boxes on batlab at the moment... we should be able to do the naive solution and have fast builds for both boxes. Any idea what the sophisticated solution would take, @crbates? I assume some (possibly overly complicated) sedding?

We should confirm that there are only two mac boxes before going further.

gidden commented 10 years ago

e.g., http://submit-1.batlab.org/quality-control/2014-03-15.html (exec-18 and exec-19).

Nice find. Maybe we should switch to MacOSX7? Those are green.

crbates commented 10 years ago

Well one option would be to use conda to install everything except for pyne, moab, and pytaps. If scipy is really the only troublemaker this could solve the problem. It would also be way faster for the full build.

scopatz commented 10 years ago

I am +1 on this suggestion. We'll want to do that anyway eventually. No reason to not do it in stages with the stable conda packages.
