• updated sherpa to v2.2.2 #2855 is now merged
• can we proceed with this?

[smuzaffar]

#2855 is in DEVEL IBs, can you please test it and see if it works as expected? After that it should first go to normal 90X IBs and then to 71X.

[pmillet]

I tested building and using it in 71X. It seems to work fine.
For tests in 90X see #2855.

[pmillet]

I did some tests in IB/CMSSW_9_0_X/gcc530 and everything seems to work fine. Can we proceed with this?

[perrozzi]

for what it matters, GEN strongly supports this update

[pmillet]

@pmillet, In last week's ORP, there was a question about the validation of Sherpa 2.2.2 in 90X.
@davidlange6 , did you get any answer?

@smuzaffar @davidlange6 The question did not reach me. If it was not answered please ask. Not sure what to make out of this failing test though.

[smuzaffar]

the reason behind the error in PR tests is that in IB some datafiles Geometry/* are picked up from cmssw/src/Geometry/ path while in PR tests the CMSSW_SEARCH_PATH become

$CMSSW_BASE/src:$CMSSW_BASE/external/slc6_amd64_gcc481/data:$CMSSW_RELEASE_BASE/src:$CMSSW_RELEASE_BASE/external/slc6_amd64_gcc481/data

soin this case, geometry datafiles are picked up from external area and there is good change that these files are not in sync.

[smuzaffar]

please test
I have fixed the login for PR testing to scram setup only those tools which are changed. Hopefully this should fix the cmsswdata issue
