Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: interwiki Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: masti (masti01) Assigned to: xqt (xqt) Summary: interwiki does not resume with -continue
Initial Comment: While running interwiki.py when an interwiki dump file does not exists the script properly saves it and you can use -continue option to restart. When it exists it will not be saved and the bot restarts using old interwiki dump so when the previous run has started.
$ python version.py Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r7972, 2010/02/27, 10:13:26) Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Aug 21 2009, 12:22:21) [GCC 4.4.1 20090818 (Red Hat 4.4.1-6)]

Message: No, it starts from the first line of dump, which was processed long time ago. In my example when a bot was editing pages beginnig with "R" and dump file entries where from J to R, with -continue it started from J.

Message: When a dumpfile still exists the dumpf will be saved to the existing one and the bot takes the alphabetical last pages to -continue. This could cause to continue like a previous run after processing all pages above.
