I found the answer to my problem.:
There is a script path variable in the family file that is hard-coded to /w/:
scriptpath(self, code):
return '/w'def
Changed to
return '/wiki'def
login.py works.
[root@mustang pywikipedia]# python login.py

I have api.php installed.

/var/www/html/w/ is a sym link from /var/www/html/wiki/
I have found several posts with this error, bit no resolutions that are applicable.
