New submission from Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: (Note: I'm splitting this from #1342 because the fix is much simpler in the non-Windows case)
py3k does not accept running from a path with non-ascii characters. $ pwd /home/antoine/py3k/héhé $ ./python Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/antoine/py3k/pristine/Lib/encodings/__init__.py", line 32, in <module> TypeError: zipimporter() argument 1 must be string without null bytes, not str Abandon The following patch solves the problem by fixing a bug in getargs.c where the "no null bytes" check for non-ASCII strings was wrong. There is still a failing test, test_xmlrpc, apparently because xmlrpc wants to output its path in an HTTP header using the "ascii" encoding... I'd say this is an xmlrpc issue and not an issue with the patch. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: getargs.patch keywords: patch messages: 66461 nosy: christian.heimes, pitrou severity: normal status: open title: Crash on non-Windows if Python runs from a non-ASCII directory type: crash versions: Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file10230/getargs.patch __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2798> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
