TASK DESCRIPTION
**Steps to replicate the issue**
My bot has a fully unified global account and uses OAuth to authenticate.
Using the `-autocreate` flag on `login.py` doesn't seem to be able to create
and attach a new local account to the global one:
$ pwb login -site:wikiquote:as -autocreate
WARNING: API error mwoauth-invalid-authorization-invalid-user: The
authorization headers in your request are for a user that does not exist here
WARNING: API error mwoauth-invalid-authorization-invalid-user: The
authorization headers in your request are for a user that does not exist here
ERROR: Failed OAuth authentication for wikiquote:as: The authorization
headers in your request are for a user that does not exist here
Not logged in on wikiquote:as.
According to {src PWBC:pywikibot/scripts/login.py} the `-autocreate` flag can
be used to "auto-create an account using unified login when necessary." My bot
does have a fully unified global account.
My user-config.py file has
- `usernames['wikiquote']['*'] = 'bot_name_here'`
- `authenticate['*.wikiquote.org'] = ( ... )`
**What happens?**:
See trace above.
**What should have happened instead?**:
A new local account attached to the global one is created.
**Software version**
WMF Production.
