Bug #: 35697
Summary: Error message on login (and other pages) should be
clear which error occured
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Hi, I think it's a good time to make the error messages actually describe the
error, rather than telling that some error occured.
For example: when you fail in process of user login, you very often get the
error "Cookies are disabled, bla bla" this is appearing almost due to any
possible error no matter if it's related to cookies or not. For example when
mediawiki can't connect to memcached, it produce this error on login page.
Can we make error messages more clear or is there any policy that mediawiki
shouldn't produce too much technical output, rather only simple "Error
happened!" messages?
