Description

When turning on wiki spam protection in wikiconfig.py, any attempt to save the page generates;

Steps to reproduce

1. do this...
2. I can't tell you how to reproduce as it's on a live wiki I dont want to leave broken.. but, when uncommenting the following line from wikiconfig.py

from MoinMoin.util.antispam import SecurityPolicy

from that point on any attempt to save a page generates the error above.

Example

I can't add URL as dont want live wiki to be broken.

Details

problem occurred in a Python script. Here is the sequence of function calls leading up to the error, in the order they occurred.

Workaround

Discussion

This is not a bug, just a file leftover from your previous moin install.

Just remove datetime.py* from MoinMoin/util/.
