373172 - Please add index.xml to the list of valid index pages

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/pending/index.xml is a list of CA and certificate details. It's an XML file transformed in-browser by XSLT.

I would like the URL
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/pending/
to work, just as it would if the file were called "index.html". I believe this requires adding index.xml to the list of pages which are valid as default pages in the Apache config.

(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/certs/pending/index
works already. But not the shorter form above.)

If it's possible to get around this with .htaccess, I could, but it seems to me to be a reasonable config change to make server-wide.

IT: Please add "index.xml" to the DirectoryIndex option in the apache2.conf for www.mozilla.org.

It might also be good to make sure the proper mime-type is being sent for that file suffix.

I get www.mozilla.org as  www-mozilla-org.glb.mozilla.com (63.245.213.12) or  static-mozorg.nllb.nl.mozilla.com . Jeremy: did you update the mirror in Amsterdam?

Works for me now. <shrug> Maybe there was a caching issue somewhere. I did Shift-Reload, though. Thanks, Jeremy :-)
