TASK DESCRIPTION I'm maintaining a continuous running script, which resets the sandbox on dewiki (the sandbox on dewiki is a bit different to the ones on e.g. enwiki, it's a specialized script, not the reset_sandbox one). It's been running without problems for several months, but suddenly since 12. February I only get "badtoken: Invalid token" exceptions when trying to save a page. When restarting it runs fine for a while, and then only gets "badtoken: Invalid token" on page.save. Here is an example from the log ``` 2015-02-17 10:43:39 Rahu.py, 182 in reset_sandbox: INFO {lightyellow}17.

The relevant part of the script: ``` def reset_sandbox() site = pywikibot.Site() site.login() sandboxPage = pywikibot.Page(site, sandboxTitle) sandboxPage.get(force=True, get_redirect=True) sandboxPage.text = sandboxDefault sandboxPage.save(comment=comment, botflag=botflag, minor=False) ``` I previously used a shared site object, which causes the same errors.
