540264 - [404] Thunderbird v3.0.1 release notes

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(www.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Thunderbird, defect)

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #531020 +++

My Thunderbird 3.0 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091204 Thunderbird/3.0) just told me there's v3.0.1 available. Unfortunately, when I click "View more information about this update" link to see why should I update (mostly looking for list for security bugs fixed and full buglist of fixes) I was greeted with a 404 error. It took me to the http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/3.0.1/releasenotes/ URL.

Looks like same error affected 3.0 release also. Should your release process contain a delay to make sure website updates are done before you start pushing updates to clients?

Bah, looks like I had beta channel selected due to having first installed "3.0 beta 4" instead of the final 3.0 version. Changing to release channel (clumsily via editing the JS file directly under "Program Files") made the update notifications go away so no wonder there's no release notes yet. Hopefully they're there once final 3.0.1 is released. I'm sorry for the confusion!

No problem ;-) You can stay on the beta channel too !
