[Pywikipedia-l] Getting started

[Merlijn van Deen]

Hello Mary,

the self.langs should contain the hostname 'localhost'. The path for the
wiki should be given in scriptpath. In your case, try something like

  self.langs = {'en': 'localhost'}

  def scriptpath(self, code):
    return '/default'



Hopefully that should work!

Best reagards,
Merlijn
