This looks like a bug in Python. Traceback is showing Python mimetypes init() trying to read the windows registry and running into trouble. The code in question isn't even using any parameters passed in from the Django code calling it, so it's unlikely any change to Django (other than not using mimetypes guess_type) would help to fix it. This has come up before on this list, and a workaround was mentioned here: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/msg/7fe07998db471693 A real fix I believe would need to be made to the Python library code to ensure that it doesn't die if the windows registry contains non-ASCII data.
