Can you please post the build ID of the build in question? I see a valid update here:

https://aus2.mozilla.org/update/2/Firefox/3.0b1/2007110903/Darwin_Universal-gcc3/ja-JP-mac/betatest/Darwin%208.8.1/update.xml

If the build ID matches the one above (2007110903) then can you please use LiveHTTPHeaders or a traffic sniffer to check which URL is being accessed for updates?

Yes, sorry, the build ID of the ja-JP b1 is: 

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.4; ja; rv:1.9b1) Gecko/2007110903 Firefox/3.0b1

Thanks Tony, this is exactly what I needed to know.

Hmm.. that's weird, it's looking for "ja" instead of "ja-JP-mac" for the locale... I wonder if the wrong locale was shipped somehow? Either that, or this localization has changed.

Axel, do you know if this locale was changed so that the AUS URL substitutes "ja" for "%locale%"?

Tony, just to confirm, this is downloaded from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0b1/mac/ja-JP-mac/Firefox%203.0%20Beta%201.dmg  (or what you have is identical to that version) right?

Comment 5

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

firefox-l10n.js for ja-JP-mac says 

pref("general.useragent.locale", "@AB_CD@");

so that should be allright.

Comment 6

[Tony Chung [:tchung]]

rob, oh wait, i think i grabbed the wrong build.  i downloaded from:  ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.0b1-candidates/rc3/firefox-3.0b1.ja.mac.dmg

This is probably the problem.  Is this invalid build?  if so, why is it there?

Comment 7

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

ja on mac isn't part of shipped-locales (ja-JP-mac is).

Not sure when that kicks in in the automation phase, so it might be OK to be on ftp. It's not on releases, though.

Comment 8

[Tony Chung [:tchung]]

I've confirmed this bug is invalid.   I downloaded the ja-JP-mac build, and it updates to b2 nicely on betatest.

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.4; ja-JP-mac; rv:1.9b2) Gecko/2007121014 Firefox/3.0b2

Mistake on my part grabbing an invalid build.  If firefox-3.0b1.ja.mac.dmg is invalid, can we get rid of it from the ftp folder?  

Comment 9

[Tony Chung [:tchung]]

ah, read closely, its not on releases.   thanks.
