Hello Everyone. I am trying to decode previously encoded and stored in mysql but ending up with binascii.Error: Incorrect padding error. I have been using sqllite for a while with same functionality used to work . When I changed to mysql it broke things . Any help with it is much appreciated.
>>> dbins.user_pass *"b'ZWJzMTJndTFTJEhANUg=\\n'"* >>> base64.decodebytes(dbins.user_pass) Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Development\sss\pyenv\lib\base64.py", line 517, in _input_type_check m = memoryview(s) TypeError: memoryview: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str' The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<console>", line 1, in <module> File "D:\Development\sss\pyenv\lib\base64.py", line 552, in decodebytes _input_type_check(s) File "D:\Development\sss\pyenv\lib\base64.py", line 520, in _input_type_check raise TypeError(msg) from err TypeError: expected bytes-like object, not str >>> base64.decodebytes(dbins.user_pass.encode("utf-8")) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<console>", line 1, in <module> File "D:\Development\sss\pyenv\lib\base64.py", line 553, in decodebytes return binascii.a2b_base64(s) *binascii.Error: Incorrect padding* Thanks, Uday. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
