745902 - Submitting or editing a demo to demo studio leads to 404 page not found

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Demo Studio / Dev Derby, defect)

Description

[Paul Morris [:pmorris]]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:13.0) Gecko/20120414 Firefox/13.0a2
Build ID: 20120414042009

Steps to reproduce:

I uploaded a demo, and later edited it.  Both times I clicked the "submit" button after making changes / entering info.


Actual results:

A new page loaded:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/demos/detail/audiovisualizer-for-alternative-music-notation-systems

...but it showed a 404, page not found error.  (Maybe it is an error in the url?)


Expected results:

A confirmation screen that the demo submission or edits were successful.

Looks like it's an issue where the title of the demo is too long, and so the actual working url is this, with a truncated title:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/demos/detail/audiovisualizer-for-alternative-music-notation-sys

Whereas submitting or editing the demo sends you to this URL with the full title:
