Hi William,

Q1 -- Assuming this is necessary ...(which is the first question... is a "FAMIILY" and family file necessary at all when running against a private Wiki.
Reading the file families/README-family.txt" the first thing it suggests is to run the script -- "generate_family_file.py". Which is also correct
--- it fails consistently. Which it shouldn't :-)
python generate_family_file.py
Traceback (most recent call last): File "generate_family_file.py", line 36, in <module> import config File "/Users/magill/pywikipedia/config.py", line 606, in <module> execfile(_filename) File "./user-config.py", line 4, in <module> usernames['mywiki']['en'] = u'magill-bot' KeyError: 'mywiki'
Basically, what is happening is that generate_family_file is loading your user-config file, but your user-config file has an unrecognised family name ('mywiki') in it. This should not happen, but as a workaround, try removing your user-config, /then/ running generate_family_file.py and /then/ generate_user_files.py.
I've opened a bug for this at https://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1639/
Yes, renaming the user-config file allowed the generate family file to work. I can now (apparently and successfully) login to lotro-wiki.com....
next step is to figure out what scripts (if any) are useful. ... lots more reading to do!
At this point, I think I've finished updating the Mac Installation page.
Thanks for all your help.
