905532 - [404] mozilla.org/MPL

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/ is redirected to 
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/ (depends on the browser locale)
and it's 404 Not Found.

http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/index.html is reachable.

Comment 2

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

Google has no index nor cache of http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/ so this is not a recent regression. Wondering why people have not reported it.

Comment 3

[Jennifer Bertsch [:jbertsch]]

Gerv might know.  I've added him to the bug.

Comment 4

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

I believe this is simply a bug. I'll set up the whole mozilla.org site locally to look into the cause.

Comment 5

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

Guys, this is not a P3 - this is a significant trafficked URL which is the canonical URL for a widely-used open source licence, the MPL. Something broke it recently, and it needs un-breaking. Please can you give it your best attention?

Thanks,

Gerv

I couldn't run the whose site due to "ImportError: No module named _md5" but anyway found the root cause of this bug:

> # bug 900493
> RewriteRule ^/(\w{2,3}(?:-\w{2})?/?)?$ /b/$1 [PT]

in the Bedrock global.conf file. Will find a solution.

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

Kohei: Thank you! Are you able to work out if this broke other URLs too? Of the files in my mozilla.org tree, I notice a "css" directory - but perhaps that's not used any more.

This rule also breaks (at least - this is from a scan of the .htaccess file in the old mozilla.org tree in SVN) the following www.mozilla.org URLs:

/NPL/
/xbl/
/hp7/
/js/
/rdf/

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

pmac on IRC said it might be better to specify locales in the RewriteRule. We can just backout the PR for Bug 900493 and later add available locales.

The NPL, xbl, hp7 and js urls are fixed on stage. The rdf link is still a 404. Gerv do you know which page that redirect is supposed to point to?

http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/  fixed on prod. Leaving this until comment 9 is answered

Whatever the .htaccess file said :-)

Redirect permanent /rdf/50-words.html http://developer.mozilla.org/en/RDF_in_Fifty_Words_or_Less
Redirect permanent /rdf/doc/aggregate.html http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Aggregating_the_In-Memory_Datasource

Actually pmac did it :)

Comment 19

[raymond [:retornam] (inactive)]

Pmac,

mozilla.org/RDF/ should redirect  to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/RDF
mozilla.org/XBL/ should redirect to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XBL


The RDF and XBL urls on mozilla.org current redirect to the homepage. I'm re-opening this bug because of that.
