21:55 < jeremyb> valhalla1w: i think maybe i even discussed my not staying logged in problem with you a couple months ago? 21:55 < jeremyb> with upload.py after running login.py 21:56 < jeremyb> i was getting prompted for password and periodically hit some kind of wrong passwd throttle and it didn't seem to matter whether the password i entered was accurate or not 21:56 < jeremyb> (i could enter garbage and hit enter and the upload would still maybe succeed) 21:56 < jeremyb> adding -lang to command line drastically improved things (and it stopped prompting for passwd) 23:01 < jeremyb> home seems to be enwiki. commons is an addition on the very last line of user-config.py
Command to reproduce should be:
23:12 < jeremyb> 08 01:10:32 < jeremyb> $ for c in $(ls -1 ???_ocha.txt | cut -d _ -f 1 | sed -n 135,146p); do python /shared/pywikipedia/core/scripts/upload.py -v -family:commons -log -noverify -filename:"$(<"$c"_ocha.name)" "${c}_ocha.svg" "$(<"$c"_ocha.txt)"; date -R; done 23:13 < jeremyb> valhalla1w: i did definitely do login.py -v -all 23:13 < jeremyb> and login.py -v -all -test 23:13 < jeremyb> (but unsure of parameter order)
