Bug #: 32003
Summary: URL redirect from www.wikipedia.org gives an invalid
domain instead of a page or 404
Product: Wikimedia Mobile
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: generic
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Steps to recreate, first on a desktop (to see correct operation) then on a
mobile device (to see the fail).
1) enter 'wikipedia.org' or 'wikipedia.com' into your URL bar
2) let the front page load (it will redirect you to 'www.wikipedia.org')
3) add 'wiki/Defenestrate' to the end of the URL to get
'www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrate'
4a) on a Desktop browser, note that you land at
'en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrate'
4b) on an iPhone, you get redirected to 'www.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrate'
and an error "Cannot open page; Safari cannot open the page because the server
cannot be found." Sure enough, www.m.wikipedia.org does not resolve in DNS.
Somewhere a rewrite rule is doing the wrong thing.
