As far as I understand this is a limitation of the python OW module.
In OWFS, “pages" is not a “file” but a “directory”:
$ owdir /Alias2438/pages
/Alias2438/pages/page.ALL
/Alias2438/pages/page.0
/Alias2438/pages/page.1
/Alias2438/pages/page.2
/Alias2438/pages/page.3
/Alias2438/pages/page.4
/Alias2438/pages/page.5
/Alias2438/pages/page.6
/Alias2438/pages/page.7
$ owread /Alias2438/pages/page.0 | hexdump
0000000 6007 bd22 0701 0000
0000008
so '/Alias2438/pages/page.0' should be accessed as ‘spic.pages.page_0’ but this
syntax for accessing “subdirectories” is not implemented in python-ow.
Other more modern python bindings for OWCAPI exists in PyPi, but I have no
experience running them:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyowfs/ <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyowfs/>
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/onewire/0.2
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/onewire/0.2>
If you run owserver on your raspbian (which BTW is the recommended setup) then
you could try pyownet: http://pyownet.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
<http://pyownet.readthedocs.io/en/latest/> (conflict of interest disclaimer:

Python 3.4.2 (default, Oct 19 2014, 13:31:11)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from pyownet.protocol import proxy
>>> owp = proxy('localhost')
>>> owp.read('/Alias2438/pages/page.0')
