Android beta app loads an old "Article of the day" (at least for dewiki)
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The Android beta app currently loads the page "Rigoletto" as the "article of the day", while the current article is "Apple". It seems to work for enwiki and for the stable version of the app.

@mobrovac, @Pchelolo — this looks like another case of T126979: [Bug] Still loading a stale Main Page with content service enabled, but (so far) specific to German Wikipedia. I confirmed a minute ago that "Rigoletto" still loads as Today's Featured Article for dewiki. Enwiki is OK, as noted above.

Mholloway moved this task from Incoming to Backlog on the Mobile-Content-Service board.

This was a consequence of T129532 and https://github.com/wikimedia/restbase/pull/548, which disabled pre-generation and updates for namespaces other than main.

We discussed & agreed to re-enable pre-generation (and thus updates) for all namespaces.

I removed my previous comment since I had not seen the latest updates to this task when I entered them. the main page on dewiki is fixed.

Thanks for the fix @Pchelolo & @GWicket. Thanks for the explanation @Mholloway and @bearND.
