UnicodeDecodeError

[Skyfold]

Just installed aws-shell on osx 10.10.5 using Python 2.7.10. I get this error upon openings aws-shell. It does not crash the shell or seem to affect any normal functionality. I installed using sudo pip install aws-shell --upgrade --ignore-installed six.

Traceback (most recent call last):

We're seeing the same thing on EMR.

What version of the AWS CLI do you have (aws --version)? I suspect this may be related to a recent release that pulled in some documentation with non ascii chars .

If that's the case, this should be fixed with the next release of the AWS CLI (https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/pull/1882).

aws-cli/1.10.17 Python/2.7.11 Darwin/15.4.0 botocore/1.4.8

[Skyfold]

The error was caused on: aws-cli/1.10.17 Python/2.7.10 Darwin/14.5.0 botocore/1.4.8

The new version of aws-cli is not on brew yet, nor is it on pip. Pip says there is a new version "10.10.1", but when I pip install --upgrade awscli and run aws --version I get 10.10.17. The same error is still present.

I will try the development branch later and see if that fixes it.

Same issue aws-cli/1.10.17 Python/2.7.11 Darwin/15.4.0 botocore/1.4.8

[jamesls]

Ok, we'll get a new CLI release out that should fix this issue. I'll also update the doc generator to be more robust when cases like this happen.

I'll update this issue once a CLI release is out.

[danoyoung]

Just a FYI, I upgraded today and it looks good so far!

[arnau]

All good here too :+1:

[joshuadsilva]
