Summary: Pywikipediabot stopped working on recent checkout
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.15.2
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: blocker
Priority: Normal
Component: API
AssignedTo: roan.katt...@gmail.com
ReportedBy: alex+mwbugzi...@hendler.name
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, s...@reedyboy.net,

Previous known good configuration with pywikipediabot 2009-11 SVN version of
pywikipediabot now throws following error with recent pywikipediabot SVN
checkout upon attempted login:
Error downloading data: No JSON object could be decoded
Request
en:/scriptpath/api.php?action=query&format=json&meta=userinfo&uiprop=blockinfo
Retrying in 1 minutes...
Dump output:
ApiGetDataParse__en__Tue_Mar__9_07-26-38_2010.dump:{"error":{"code":"readapidenied","info":"You
need read permission to use this module"}}
I am running this on a local installation and I get the same error on clones of
the system running on Ubuntu 9.04 (Python 2.6.2), Ubuntu 8.04 (Python 2.5.2)
and Mac OS 10.6.2 (Python 2.5.2).
This error was also present in MW 1.15.1.
Older versions of pywikipediabot work - I'm really glad I saved previous
checkouts! With a rolling development model, there's no way (that I can find)
to get an older known good snapshot....
