New subject: Problem with mwclient and EditPage::attemptSave hook

23 May 2010

Hi,

I 've setup mediawiki-1.15.1 with the following hook in LocalSettings.php:

$wgHooks['EditPage::attemptSave'][] = 'foo';

Foo is a simple function:

function foo($editpage) {
return true;
}

With this setup I 've noticed that I cannot save any page with mwclient (ver
0.6.4). The call:
page.save(newText)

raises the following exception:
  File "/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 338, in raw_decode
    raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

When I comment out the hook then the save command works properly. Any
suggestions?

My system is a OSX 10.6.3

Thank you
Alex.
