Summary: Special:RequestAccount form post results in BadTitle
page (ConfirmAccount Extension)
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
With the ConfirmAccount extension installed on the server, after posting a
Special:RequestAccount form, users get a BadTitle page, making them unable to
actually request an account.
The bug occurs with french localized MediaWiki ($wgLanguageCode = "fr") but not
in english ($wgLanguageCode = "fr").
I further figured out that it occurs only when the localized name for the
special namespace has special characters, for instance:
- "Spécial" with $wgLanguageCode = "fr"
- "Служебная" with $wgLanguageCode = "ru"
It works with $wgLanguageCode = "de" ("Spezial") and of course with
$wgLanguageCode = "de".
As a workaround I have set the french name of the special namespace to
"Special" instead of "Spécial" ($namespaceName[NS_SPECIAL] = 'Special') in
