[Bug 1396951] Re: webbrowser-app’s autopilot tests fail on otto: access to /dev/shm is denied

 

Additionally, i386 and and amd64 builds now also fail in CI, because of
the same error (interestingly they pass on armhf, I guess because they
are being run on real hardware as opposed to chroots for the other
architectures). See e.g. https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/webbrowser-
app-vivid-amd64-ci/86/console.

Title:
  webbrowser-app’s autopilot tests fail on otto: access to /dev/shm is
  denied

Status in Automated UI testing on Hardware:
  New
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The CI job that runs autopilot tests for webbrowser-app on otto (desktop) has been consistently failing since the switch to vivid.
  The error seen in the log is the following:

  /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(231)] Creating shared memory in /dev/shm/.org.chromium.Chromium.UAVbQt failed: Permission denied
  /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(234)] Unable to access(W_OK|X_OK) /dev/shm: Permission denied
  /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:FATAL:shared_memory_posix.cc(236)] This is frequently caused by incorrect permissions on /dev/shm.  Try 'sudo chmod 1777 /dev/shm' to fix.

  At a first glance it looks to me like the problem is in the otto setup
  itself.
