Sound like a very old bug, I've heared from years ago. Use login.py before you use a script. Might be it helps.

Hi all,
I couldn't use my bot for 2 years now, first the SVN->git transition, then the new core/compat system messed up everything, meanwhile the Hungarian toolserver stopped with my automated bots, and I became a workoholic in my new job...
Now I try to get back, I have to restart almost from scratch, to make my ow and modified scripts work with the framework. What I did:
- Downloaded and unpacked compat from nightlies.
- Copied my old user-config.py and family files and my own utis module to
it. 3. Started my version of replace.py (it does some things for me that are not in the framework).. I quit without editing, that means the bot had to refresh only its own log page.
Before updating the log page it asked for my password.
*Password for user BinBot on wikipedia:huNo characters will be shown:Logging in to wikipedia:hu as BinBot via API.Should be logged in nowUpdating page [[Szerkeszt?:BinBot/munka]] via API* After this my IP appeared in page history instead of the bot's name. How is that possible? I never experienced this.
