UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 49-51: ordinal not in range(128) ()

Locale is en_US.UTF-8, python is 2.6.5

Same problem as the other one posted here, but my locale is set correctly. It printed 1 wow

 user@host:~$ doge

                                                                             wow

Interesting. Does it look proper if you just cat the files in doge/static/? Are all of the locales from /usr/bin/locale the same? I assume that doge --no-shibe runs just fine?

[IonRoux]

When I cat /doge/static I get this. I assume it is not correct: http://i.imgur.com/nAuxaRc.png

All locales do this

--no-shibe works perfectly. Not sure what is up

much frustrate

[Olivia5k]

No, that's not correct Shibe, haha.

That looks like it's inside of Putty, correct? If so, I think there are special encodings you need to set, and IIRC Putty has some latin-1 locale as default. Could you check?

[deathweaselx86]

Same problem, except I'm doing it locally through Konsole. Python 2.6.8. Locale is en_US.UTF8.

All of the Shibe look correct.

[IonRoux]

Changing the locale in putty fixed it when using cat, but using the doge command still outputs an error. Same as @deathweaselx86 now.

I'm seeing the same issue on CentOS 6.5, connecting from iTerm on my Mac. Works with --no-shibe, but if I cat doge.txt I get the pic with no problem.

If I run locally on my Mac from the same iTerm, doge works fine. locale on the Mac is:

I'm sorry I've been inactive on this issue. Holidays, and honestly I have no idea what's actually going wrong. All of you seem to have a proper setup. I can't reproduce any of this either.

Can someone experiment with changing the failing line to line.encode('utf-8') or maybe even line.decode('utf-8') to see if that makes any difference? It might be that the strings are passed around improperly for some unknown reason.

[IonRoux]

No worries, its a holiday we understand.

with line.encode:

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/doge/core.py", line 246, in print_doge sys.stdout.write(line)

with line.decode: Same errot but also another one:

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/doge/core.py", line 245, in print_doge line.decode('utf-8') File "/usr/lib/python2.6/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 29-30: ordinal not in range(128) ()

Not completely familliar with python, but I assume this is what you meant:

def print_doge(self): for line in self.lines: line.decode('utf-8') sys.stdout.write(line) sys.stdout.flush()

where line.decode is on line 246

[Olivia5k]

Strings are immutable in Python, so the .decode() part needs to be declared to a variable or returned. Remove the line you added and change the sys.stdout.write line to sys.stdout.write(line.decode('utf-8')) and try with encode if decode doesn't cut it.

[IonRoux]

Changing it to decode fails, but changing it to encode worked perfectly. For anyone that finds this in the future with this issue, here is a screenshot of line 245: http://i.imgur.com/IEAqBlw.png

Works perfectly, few unsupported characters, but I should be able to fix that once I'm on a computer http://i.imgur.com/AS5GfaV.png

[Olivia5k]

Cool. I'll reopen this and see if I can implement something that works for all cases. Thanks for the investigation and finding a solution! :dog2:

[IonRoux]

Sounds good! Much welcome!
