UnicodeEncodeError

[noonecares]

Hi guys,

I noticed a Unicode Encode Error in guiminer. Iam just useing the newest Version (guiminer-20110824.exe). What happened? I entered my deepbit.net accountinformation and sayed "files->save". I also checked the "autostart"(checkbox) in the "summary" of this just entered new worker. Then i closed the guiminer and want to start it again. The miner tries to load the saved settings and want to start automatically. The Problem is that i entered some strange ASCII codes for having a safe password. (containing i.e. #!?/_-ä)

Now? I start the miner and get a error message: "error occured: see the logfile '*' for details" here is the logfileentry: Traceback (most recent call last): File "guiminer.py", line 2283, in File "guiminer.py", line 2274, in run File "guiminer.py", line 1717, in init File "guiminer.py", line 1942, in load_config File "guiminer.py", line 955, in start_mining File "subprocess.pyo", line 621, in init** File "subprocess.pyo", line 830, in _execute_child UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe4' in position 154: ordinal not in range(128)

Thanks for letting me know about this. I never tried it with non-ascii characters in the data, probably this will need some work to be supported. I can't promise when it will be fixed as things are very busy with me.

If you know some programming or a friend that does I would welcome a patch for this.
