I've created https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T105847 to track this issue.

These are still 404ing today. They were working for months prior to yesterday.

Does the timing of the issue narrow it down to any recent changes in the dump system? I strongly suspect the latest directory is getting updated before the dump has completed. http://dumps.wikimedia.org/jawiki/20150703/ shows the files in the "latest" directory but also shows that the combined latest revision articles dump hasn't been created yet:
  • waiting Recombine articles, templates, media/file descriptions, and primary meta-pages.
    • jawiki-20150703-pages-articles.xml.bz2

Good catch. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist in the jawiki directory either.

You're trying to download Japanese file from an "enwiki" directory.

Hi data dumpers,

Starting today, some of the URLs I've been using to find the latest dumps for current article revisions have begun 404ing.

Japanese (failing):

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

Are these particular dump files going away, or is the "latest" symlink being updated before all dumps have completed?
