DO NOT REPLY [Bug 50145] New: Fix Wording On Default Internal Server Error Message

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50145

           Summary: Fix Wording On Default Internal Server Error Message
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.3-HEAD
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jtdoz6+apache@gmail.com


The default Internal Server Error message that is hard-coded into httpd should
probably be reevaluated.

The line in question currently says, "Please contact the server administrator,
some@email.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you
might have done that may have caused the error."

This message has a couple of grammar bugs and some would say has an accusatory
tone. My suggestion would be to change it to something like, "Please contact
the server administrator at some@email.com to inform them of the time the error
occurred and the actions you performed that resulted in this error."

Additionally, including the server time on the page could prove beneficial to
sysadmins as they are tracking down log entries.
