1208697 - Sorting options no longer work on https://ftp.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1199039

Steps to reproduce:

It looks like this should be filed in FTP: Staging but that doesn't appear in the component list.

The sorting no longer works on https://ftp.mozilla.org, for example it does not sort by descending modification date:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/?C=M;O=D



Actual results:

I have a script that updates Firefox Nightly by connecting to that URL and getting the most recent windows nightly zip file. I recently noticed the script is not working as intended because if there are two nightly zip files the script doesn't download the most recent even though I'm using the URL above to sort by descending modified date.


Expected results:

Either the sorting should work or if there are no plans to fix it let me know and I'll find a workaround for the script.
