--- Comment #7 from Merlijn van Deen valhallasw@arctus.nl --- Very strange -- even with that user-config I can't reproduce it....
Could you try to make a clean checkout, and run
pwb.py login
without having user-config.py there, and follow the prompts, and see if it works then?
In the meanwhile, I'll try and find a Windows 8 host to test.
