I have this code to access the router's config.

class Peplink_login(threading.Thread):
    twill_browser = twill.browser.TwillBrowser()
    def login_sso(self):
        login_url = "http://" + ROUTER_IP + "cgi-bin/MANGA/index.cgi"
        st = datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
        print st+"url ---- %s" % login_url

        self.twill_browser.go(login_url)
        self.formvalue(self.twill_browser, "1", "username", "admin")
        self.formvalue(self.twill_browser, "2", "password", "admin")
        self.twill_browser.submit()
        sleep
        self.twill_browser.code(200)
        print "Login successful"

I am new to python and I need this to be sorted out. The error says "no matching forms" but I only have 2 input boxes on the main page. Why is that?

FYR:

I don't think there's enough information in this without seeing the code for your login_url website. – Eugene K Sep 01 '15 at 04:16
the router_ip = 192.168.50.1 – Mix Austria Sep 01 '15 at 05:11
Have you tried mechanize or mechanicalsoup instead? – alecxe Sep 01 '15 at 05:22
sorry but I don't know much about python. I was given a python script and I need to record some data using it. But I am stuck on the first page where to put username and password. – Mix Austria Sep 01 '15 at 05:27
Isnt this "self.formvalue" have to be "self.formvalue.formvalue("1", "username", "admin")" ? – alpert Sep 01 '15 at 05:31
it returns me this error formvalue() takes exactly 5 arguments – Mix Austria Sep 01 '15 at 06:08
Have you found any solution ? – N Kaushik Oct 08 '15 at 09:33
