It sounds like error means that back-end DB server was overloaded. Retrying is a good course of action.

core detects this in api.py and retries. see r4984 & r4580

jayvdb moved this task from Backlog to Verified fixed in core on the Pywikibot-compat board.Nov 30 2014, 2:20 PM

jayvdb moved this task from Verified fixed in core to To be backported from core on the Pywikibot-compat board.

Pywikibot has two versions: Compat and Core. This task was filed about the older version, called Pywikibot-compat, which is not under active development anymore. Hence I'm lowering the priority of this task to reflect the reality. Unfortunately, the Pywikibot team does not have the manpower to retest every single bug report / feature request against the (maintained) Pywikibot code base. Furthermore, the code base of Pywikibot-Compat has changed a lot compared to the code base of Pywikibot-Core so there is a chance that the problem described in this task might not exist anymore. Please help: Unfortunately manpower is limited and does not allow testing every single reported task again. If you have time and interest in Pywikibot, please upgrade to Pywikibot-Core and add a comment to this task if the problem in this task still happens in Pywikibot-Core (or directly edit the task by removing the Pywikibot-compat project and adding the Pywikibot project to this task). To learn more about Pywikibot and to get involved in its development, please check out https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Development Thank you for your understanding.

core works (for that script)
