What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

sorry...'

Converting DEFAULT_PATH to Unicode by using the default locale encoding fixed 
the problem.

[Note that if GMapCatcher was already installed on the system, it needs to be 
reinstalled. This is because the path, by default is taken from the config 
file, which, prior to this fix, is already corrupted]
