             Bug #: 33458
           Summary: Error when assigning global group permissions to an
                    account with spaces
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: CentralAuth
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

    Classification: Unclassified


There appears to be an error when assigning global user rights to a global
account with spaces. Earlier I tested it by assigning my test account global IP
block exempt:

(show/hide) 16:08, 1 January 2012 PeterSymonds (talk | contribs | block)
changed global group membership for User:Peter Symonds from
global-ipblock-exempt to (none) ‎ (done)
(show/hide) 16:07, 1 January 2012 PeterSymonds (talk | contribs | block)
changed global group membership for User:Peter Symonds from (none) to
global-ipblock-exempt ‎ (testing bug in global rights interface; will revert in
a few seconds) 

The following message was thrown back:

"The global user PeterSymonds_(test) is not active on the wiki you specified (
aawiki ). You may be attempting to assign rights to the wrong user!"

Despite this message, as the log shows, the right was assigned successfully.
Furthermore, I didn't attempt to assign the right on aawiki; it was assigned on
Meta-Wiki.
