375036 - Default Firefox AMO bookmark is a 404

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

The first bookmark in a clean profile is
http://en-US.add-ons.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/bookmarks/
and gets redirected to
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/bookmarks/
which is a 404.
Because this bookmark is offered to every new user, it should be fixed asap. Has to be tested with other locales.

SVN r2864 redirects that URL to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:1/cat:22/sort:popular which seems a little intimidating to me, but it's better than a 404.

This will work for all locales.

This will be fixed with the next merge.

Aren't those style of urls supposed to be handled and redirected on the mozilla.com server-op end?

Adding oremj - is this something that should be handled on your end?

Comment 4

[Mike Shaver (:shaver -- probably not reading bugmail closely)]

This is something we'll need to fix in the AMO app, I think, either with a rewrite or a legacy-url redirect to the search pages, because 1.5 didn't go through the redirect farm.

Wil: will you have cycles for this?

This isn't a 404 anymore, so I'm resolving.  Talked with shaver on IRC - his comment is for a different bug.
