I've tested it on several wikipedias like als, bar, de, en,  nds with py2.5.2 and py2.7 and it worked fine for me.
Is your wiki's API accessable via internet so we could check it too with an other configuration?

Betreff: Re: [Pywikipedia-l] invalid literal error

  Still can't figure out what the problem is. I have seen and read 
everything I can find on error downloading with pywikipedia and the API. 
I used Autowiki Browser to check connections and I can connect, edit, 
delete, etc.

I went back through the log files and the bot was accessing this 
particular wiki no problems as of 3 weeks ago. I have changed nothing on 
the wiki at all as far as extensions or additional files and no one else 
has access to the root to do so either. It can't be an error with 
pywikipedia because my other wiki works just fine. So one would think 
API on the wiki that is failing to download data. However, Autowiki 
Browser works just fine so I don't think that is the problem.

Could it be in the config file(family) of the wiki? But that still 
wouldn't explain why it was connecting just fine 3 weeks ago and 
suddenly stopped.

Tom
