Hi Hans,
for testing purposes I have a local wiki setup and this is my family
file[1] using [2] as URL. But it would be more helpful if you chould
show the error messages including the trace backs. Also the location
of that file is important (relative to the other files) regarding your
comment that it didn't find it. And depending on the location if must
be added to the user-config.py (if it's in pywikibot/families/ you
don't need to do that).
