Bug ID: 62388 Summary: Bot should not edit when it is not logged in: Product: Pywikibot Version: compat (1.0) Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: General Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: info@gno.de Web browser: --- Mobile Platform: ---
see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Beitr%C3%A4ge/79.213.29.131
Sorry, I didn't find that edit in the log but I try to remeber it: Bot was running for several days in an infinite loop. I shortly logged me in as bot on de-wiki to change some settings. Most of my bot task stopped and asked for the password to continue on both branches (core and compat) except of one. It asked for a new token and continued, but it was logged out.

--- Comment #1 from Sorawee Porncharoenwase nullzero.free@gmail.com --- I also found the issue that several scripts running at the same time request wrong tokens. For example, one of my scripts patrolled abuselog and needed to be logged in as sysop all the time. The other script was run and made an edit, and the result showed up in recentchanges.

--- Comment #2 from Amir Ladsgroup ladsgroup@gmail.com --- An option in user-config.py would be good. something that makes the code crashed if the user is not logged in. (we can implement that in http.py but a better place would be really good)
I set the priority high because editing while logged out can reveal IP and that's not good in case you run it from your PC.

--- Comment #3 from John Mark Vandenberg jayvdb@gmail.com --- I think this was done in http://git.wikimedia.org/commit/pywikibot%2Fcore.git/0009fb8957a64aeeb9810c7...
And this request looks like a dup of bug 55068. Re-open if the problem persists.

I also found the issue that several scripts running at the same time request wrong tokens. For example, one of my scripts patrolled abuselog and needed to be logged in as sysop all the time. The other script was run and made an edit, and the result showed up in recentchanges.
Was the edit in recentchangess logged in, or logged out?
