Hi all, Mahara language strings are actually sprintf() format strings. That's why the placeholder is "%s". Thus if you want to print a literal "%" character, you have to sprintf-escape it by doing two of them: "%%".
So the fix here is to update the Japanese language pack so that this language-string has a %% instead of a %. <strong class="error text-danger">Cronが動作していません。</strong><br />cronのセットアップに関するインストラクションは<a href="https://wiki.mahara.org/wiki/System_Administrator%%27s_Guide/Installing_Mahara";>installation guide</a>をご覧ください。あなたがすでにcronをセットアップしている場合、直近の1つまたはそれ以上の処理が正しく実行されませんでした。 ... or in this case, you could alternately update the Japanese language pack to replace the "%27" with a an apostrophe "'". That's what we did in the English language pack, as a less-brittle fix for this particular string. I'll update the wiki page about lang strings ( https://wiki.mahara.org/wiki/Developer_Area/Language_strings#Plural_strings ). Currently it mentions sprintf(), but it doesn't explicitly say that lang strings are sprintf() format strings, or that you have to escape literal % characters.
