I'm trying to set up PDF generation on a mediawiki site using the PdfExport extension, using mwlib. This PdfExport extension uses mw-render to render a PDF straight from an URL. However this always returns <urlopen error [Errno 67] request timed out> errors.
I have been running this command in a shell to play with it, and sometimes, after a long pause it seems to start a transfer but then always fails with this error (with or without starting a transfer). If I however fire up mw-zip with the exact same command line parameters (except for the --writer parameter) , it connects immediately and generates a zip file which then can be used to render the PDF with mw-render. I have been testing to my own mediawiki site, but also to wikipedia, all results in the same behavior. I don't know python, but looking to the the mwlib sources, it seems to me mw-render and mw-zip share the same fetch-routines? Has anyone an idea of why I see this behavior ? and/or suggestions on how I can try to fix mw-render ?
