Error performing an external request (for phetools/credits.py) due to 404 URL
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

All ebook exports are failing with "Error performing an external request", seemingly because https://tools.wmflabs.org/phetools/credits.py is no longer reachable. This might be due to the change to toolforge.org.

A similar error happens for CLI exporting:

./bin/book.php -l en -t Emma
Error: GuzzleHttp\Exception\ClientException: Client error: GET https://tools.wmflabs.org/phetools/credits.py?lang=en&format=json&page=Emma%7CEmma%2FVolume_1%2FChapter_1%7CEmma%2FVolume_1%2FChapter_2[…SNIP…] resulted in a 404 Not Found response

@Phe @Tpt @Candalua are any of you able to have a look at getting the above script working again?

Tpt claimed this task.

It should work now. The lighttpd configuration was not updated for the ToolsForge URL change.

I have added "tools.community-tech-tools" to the phetools owners
