Just how does one get MobileFrontend pages to cache properly? Apparently it's disabled from using the built-in file cache system, and so far I see no evidence of Varnish being willing to cache it. Does anyone have a good guide explaining what might be needed in terms of tweaks to VCL to get it to cache?
Thanks!
I'm not really sure, but I have asked the mobile-l mailing list if they might be able to help you out.
The Varnish config is in http://git.wikimedia.org/tree/operations%2Fpuppet.git/d2135689ca373f3dd2782ac2d61e941a0ce8eb03/templates%2Fvarnish . In that same repo you'll see some Apache directories which are instructive. The stuff in https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/operations%2Fmediawiki-config.git (partially available via an easy to remember https://noc.wikimedia.org URL) is also helpful to some extent (you'll see other caching directive stuff in MediaWiki Core; a runtime debugger is often a good idea if tracing through that).
