Media wiki is installed and running fine. I have a
user named 'Wikibot'
configured and in the BOT group. I noticed that the user-config.py has
several references to Wikiuser. Should these be Wikibot?
Yes. But that's not causing your socket error.
user-config.py also
has references to the DB name, user and password. These are not filled in
correctly. Is it required that they be setup to match the MySQL DB for
MediaWiki?
It's not required, unless you need to perform direct DB operations.
Anyway, it is not causing the socket error.
I looked at your family file, the error is here:
self.langs = { # REQUIRED
'en': 'mustang/wiki/', # Include one line for each wiki in
family
}
First, we don't need to append the /wiki/ relative path, but only the
path to the root of the wiki. But again, that's probably not causing
the error.
What happens with
self.langs = {
'en': 'mustang',
}
?
(localhost should behave the same since mustang appears to be your host name...)
Can you paste here the output of
$ python login.py -v -v
?
Double-check that the urls that pywikipedia will try to access are
accessible through tools such as curl/wget.
