1732220 - Please deploy contile 1.4.0 to production

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Cloud Services :: Operations: Miscellaneous, task)

Description

[Philip Jenvey [:pjenvey]]

Apologies for the short notice (and request for a "friday" deploy) but let's aim to roll out the contile 1.4.0 release on Thursday 9/23.

We've been tracking an issue with elevated impression/click counts from excluded countries. We've found this is due to fallout from the 9/16 incidient:

https://github.com/mozilla-services/contile/issues/284

The 1.4.0 release contains a workaround to fix these clients (by returning them 200 OK empty responses instead of 204 No Content).

This workaround is enabled by default so this release requires no settings changes. Note that it can be disabled if needed via the following new setting:

CONTILE_EXCLUDED_COUNTRIES_200=false

1.4.0 (2021-09-23)

Features

• add a /__test_loc__ dockerflow endpoint (#282) (d28584d9, closes #281)
• optionally send 200 OK empty responses to excluded countries (#290) (bf8594e0, closes #284)

Correction: The new API endpoint for testing geolocation lookups is /__loc_test__ (see d28584d9).
