The part of dPref that is trying to connect looks like:
prefdir = utils.getUserAppDataDirectory(appName)
self._cxn = dabo.db.dConnection(connectInfo={"dbType": "SQLite",
"database": os.path.join(prefdir, "DaboPreferences.db")})
So given the error, the problem could be one of two things: SQLite
can't handle a path with bytes > 127, or the user doesn't have the
right to create the database file in that directory. I just tried
creating a non-English named directory under OS X, and I was able to
create an SQLite database in it through Dabo. So given that, and the
fact that the error was not a typical "Unicode decode error" message,
is it possible that it is a privileges issue?
