Sorry about this Simon! This is a very fair point, apologies that got missed. I'll update the historic release notes and make sure not to make the same mistake again.
I wouldn’t really call it a mistake, having this kind of reminder is nice to have :)
For Servo CI, we install generic-worker in a Windows AMI for EC2. This works by having a PowerShell script that runs at first boot. However this script runs non-interactively, and its output is not easy to get at.
Twice now I’ve bumped the version number in the script like this:
Only to realize after after lengthy debugging that the filename has changed to
generic-worker-multiuser-windows-amd64.exe
, so the download fails with a 404 error.When doing such upgrades I do read the change logs at https://github.com/taskcluster/generic-worker/releases. It would be nice if future such filename changes were called out in the change logs. Thanks!
