Description Merlijn van Deen (test) 2013-12-16 20:33:12 UTC
valhallasw@lisilwen:~/src/pwb/pywikibot-compat$ python login.py
Password for user valhallasw on wikipedia:nl
No characters will be shown:
Logging in to wikipedia:nl as valhallasw via API.
Login failed. Wrong password or CAPTCHA answer?
API login failed, retrying using standard webpage.
Logging in to wikipedia:nl as valhallasw
What is the answer to the captcha "CAPTCHA: " ? 

Instead of showing the captcha URL, the above is shown, which obviously makes solving the captcha hard.
Comment 1 Merlijn van Deen (test) 2013-12-16 20:36:15 UTC
This is with the following user-config.py:

mylang = 'nl'
family = 'wikipedia'
usernames['wikipedia']['nl'] = 'valhallasw'
usernames['commons']['commons'] = 'valhallasw'
