Created attachment 41103 [details] [review] Bug 14573: Correcting error messages on OPAC so they make better sense To test: 1) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/errornumber.pl to see the error messages which currently don't make sense (ie cgi-bin/koha/errors/400.pl etc) 2) Apply patch 3) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/400.pl --> Check that it now says "This error means that the link was broken and that the page doesn't exist." 4) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/401.pl --> Check that it now says "This error means that you are not authorized to view this page." and "Please log in to the catalog and try again.". Check that 'log in' redirects to the OPAC log in page (opac-user.pl). 5) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/402.pl --> Check that it now says "This error means that the link is invalid." 6) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/403.pl --> Check that it now says "This error means that you are forbidden to view this page." 7) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/404.pl --> Check that it now says "This message may have been caused by any of the following reasons:" and "An internal link in our catalog is broken and the page does not exist". 8) Go to cgi-bin/koha/errors/500.pl --> Check that it now says "An error occurred while processing your request." my apologies, all of those links should be cgi-bin/opac/errors etc, not cgi-bin/koha/errors  | 
400.pl: "This error means that the Koha is pointed an invalid link." - doesn't make much sense 401.pl: "This error means that the you are trying to access a link that you're not authorized to see" - unnecessary 'the'. Also could be improved by providing a hyperlink for the user to log in rather than saying "Try logging in"? 402.pl: Same as 401 403.pl: "This error means that you are forbidden for some reason to see this page." - could be worded better ('for some reason') 404.pl: "This message can have following reasons" - doesn't really make sense "An internal link in our catalog home page is broken and the page does not exist" - are the words 'home page' necessary here? 500.pl: "An error occurred while try to process your request." - should say 'trying'
