A (new and different) error in the patch from {{bug|1105485}} caused these not to fire automatically. They had to be forced again. The release equivalents will need forcing too, but not until after we push to mirrors. | A (new and different) error in the patch from {{bug|1105485}} caused these not to fire automatically.

=== Publish by hand === | |||
For this release, the "default" rule in Balrog had to be pointed at the no-whatsnew blob, so we couldn't use the "update shipping" builder. To publish, did the following: | |||
* Created a new rule for the whatsnew locales by duplicating the release-cdntest one and adjusting the channel. It had the following data: | |||
** Product: Firefox | |||
** Channel: release | |||
** Mapping: Firefox-37.0-build2 | |||
** Rate: 25 | |||
** Priority: 91 | |||
** Locale: en-US,en-GB,de,pt-BR,id,fr,es-ES,es-MX | |||
Then I deleted the rule that was in place for 36.0 whatsnew pages. Finally, repointed the "default" Firefox release channel rule to the Firefox-37.0-build2-no-whatsnew blob and changed its rate to 25%. Any locales not included in the newly created rule above will fall through to it. | |||
The order of operations is important here -- if the "default" rule was updated before the new one was created some users on the listed locales would not have received a whatsnew page. | |||
