Summary: Distribution Wizard typos and some wording issue
Issue Type: cid:jira-generated-image-avatar-2ad2c092-5825-49b7-b4cf-fe4e75159f63 Bug
Affects Versions: 16.10.11, 17.4.0
Assignee: Unassigned
Attachments: Step 4_Small_Typo_missing_letter_Step1_subwiki.png, Step 4_Small_Typo_missing_letter_Step2_Main_Wiki.png, Step 6_Typo_Words_should_be_united_Step2.png, Step 8_Unneeded_word_Step5.png
Components: Distribution - Flavor
Created: 11/Sep/25 12:29
Environment: Windows 11 Pro, Firefox 142, using an instance of XWiki 17.4.4 on PostgreSQL 17, Tomcat 11.0.10, reproducible also on Jetty/HSQL
Priority: cid:jira-generated-image-static-major-a21e2953-1b30-46c6-b766-9871c2144ca2 Major
Reporter: Ilie Andriuta
Description:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create an older XWiki instance with a subwiki to be upgraded (e.g. 12.x or 13.x)
  2. On this instance, replace the WAR with the one from a recent XWiki version (e.g. 17.4.4), to which the upgrade will be done
  3. Start the instance and reach the Distribution Wizard
  4. On "Step 2 - Flavor", observe the second sentence under the first heading "The currently installed flavor": "It often need to be upgraded to be in sync with the new distribution."
  5. Click "Install this flavor" button
  6. Observe the sentence just below "Flavor" section: "You are about to install the following flavor, please confirm or select an other flavor."
  7. Follow the DW to reach "Step 5 - Report"
  8. Observe the second sentence under "Pages" heading: "The following tree contains all the pages that have been created, modified or deleted page during the installation."

Expected results

Step 4: The second sentence should be: "It often needs to be upgraded to be in sync with the new distribution."

Step 6: The words "an" and "other" should be united: ""You are about to install the following flavor, please confirm or select another flavor."

Step 8: The sentence should be without the "page" word: "The following tree contains all the pages that have been created, modified or deleted during the installation."

 

Actual results

Step 4: There is an "s" missing on the work "needs". The same issue reproduces when a subwiki is upgraded (on "Step 1 - Flavor" this time).

Step 6: The words "an" and "other" are written separately.

Step 8: The word "page" (singular) is placed after enumeration of actions, which seems to be an oversight.

# Observe the second sentence under "Pages" heading: "The following tree contains all the pages that have been created, modified or deleted page during the installation."

*Expected results*

Step 4: The second sentence should be: "It often need{*}s{*} to be upgraded to be in sync with the new distribution."

Step 6: The words "an" and "other" should be united: ""You are about to install the following flavor, please confirm or select *another* flavor."

Step 8: The sentence should be without the "page" word: "The following tree contains all the pages that have been created, modified or _deleted during_ the installation."

 

*Actual results*

Step 4: There is an "s" missing on the work "needs". The same issue reproduces when a subwiki is upgraded (on "Step 1 - Flavor" this time).
