I am new at running pywikipedia bots and running an update bot with the same structure/calls as in the script at: http://ontoworld.org/wiki/Ontology_import#Alternative_import The problem is that when I run the bot NO new page is created; I have tested that the bot user/password works in the wiki.

- Is there some other configuration setting which needs to be set ot allow bots to make updates to the wiki? - What other troubleshooting can I do to find out why this isn't working? Thanks in advance for your help. Dave J. The trace of this script is: Checked for running processes. 2 processes currently running, including the current process. clone:en BOT ALLOWED? True cloneBot password Creating Works {{Tools-Models |Description=3D model building tool }} Getting a page to check if we're logged in on clone:en Password for user cloneBot on clone:en: Warning: Problem with getpass.

[] By the way: There is an apparent code error in wikipedia.py at line, which I changed as follows: ## predata.append(("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded")) ## predata.append(("User-agent", useragent)) ## Mod by DHJ predata["Content-type"] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" predata["User-agent"] = useragent This is somewhat suspicious that this error hasn't been found yet, if it part of the normal update process.
