Elliotte Rusty Harold updated MNG-5693:
---------------------------------------
Description:
If a plugin fails for any reason, a general message is logged with a reference
to a wiki page, which never contains the real reason why the plugin failed. For
users this is very confusing. Even when they finally see a link, it's quite
frustrating for them that they still don't know what happened.
{{MojoExecutionException}} and {{MojoFailureException}} should never refer to a
wikipage anymore.
Plugin writers should get more control over the message written to the console.

If a plugin fails for any reason, a general message is logged with a reference
to a wiki page, which never contains the real reason why the plugin failed.
For new users this is very confusing. Even when we teach them to read, and they
finally see a link, it's quite frustrating for them that they still don't know
what happened.
{{MojoExecutionException}} and {{MojoFailureException}} should never refer to a
wikipage anymore.
Plugin writers should get more control over the message written to the console.
