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

 

Now that bug #1399772 has been fixed, the vivid chroots used by CI jobs
need to be rebuilt to ensure that /dev/shm is created with the correct
permissions.

** Summary changed:

- webbrowser-app’s autopilot tests fail on otto: access to /dev/shm is denied
+ webbrowser-app’s unit tests crash in CI jobs: access to /dev/shm is denied

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.
