[MediaWiki-l] Can't download extensions: Invalid response from Extension Distributor remote client.

My wiki has been getting pummeled again with bot user accounts. For some reason RemoveUnusedAccounts isn't seeing the bot accounts even though they haven't made edits and everytime I try to download any extensions I get this error "Invalid response from Extension Distributor remote client.". ________________________________ From: Jamie Thingelstad <jamie(a)thingelstad.com> To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2012 7:32 AM Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] cleaning out a mass of unwanted users Assuming that these accounts didn't do anything other than signup and register, you could easily use the removeUnusedAccounts.php maintenance script. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:RemoveUnusedAccounts.php If they have made edits, then the Nuke extension is the best way to go.
