Script looks for a title non existing in wiki nor titles list #31

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
On a couple of wikis the script got stuck in an error loop because it was 
looking for a non existing page. The title was recurrent and strange, 
"AMF5LKE43MNFGHKSDMRTJ", so I thought they were just weird wikis with mirrored 
junk content.
On reviewing it, though, I discovered that the title never existed on those 
wikis and is not contained in the title list neither, and Special:Export/API 
work. Probably some temporary craziness of python or my machine which will be 
resolved by next run, but still worth tracking.
I attach titles list and here's the terminal output (nothing useful anywhere):

And again on a wikis whose Special:Export requires login and API doesn't 
provide titles: http://p.defau.lt/?9MV6O0TDa0SAJSBUmJ7Mfw

It is a random title to extract the headers (namespace info, and other info) 
from XML. But now I have changed it to "Main_Page" to avoid possible errors.

By the way, this issue contains two different errors:
* Wikidoc fails to export any page (try "Anatomy") 
http://www.wikidoc.org/index.php?title=Special:Export So, it is not 
dumpgenerator.py fault, it is a great wiki but looks like server has exporting 
problems.
* Wikiznanieru can export any page 
http://www.wikiznanie.ru/ru-wz/index.php/Special:Export (including the random 
"AMF5LKE43MNFGHKSDMRTJ"), but dumpgenerator.py fails. Not sure why, further 
research is needed. By the way that Special:Export page only includes a 
checkbox (not three as usual).

Regards

Marking as duplicate of the bug about namespace retrieval then, the other 
issues are wiki-specific and would require separate bugs anyway.
