Comment (by Daniel Pope <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>):
Apache is running in the wrong locale: {{{locale.getpreferredencoding()}}}
is returning an ASCII character set.
I've had a look at my servers and both Debian and Ubuntu include the line:
{{{
ENV="env -i LANG=C PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
}}}
as one of the first lines in {{{/etc/init.d/apache2}}}.
Replace {{{LANG=C}}} with {{{LC_ALL=*your locale*}}} and restart Apache,
and mod_python should then be able to open Unicode paths.
The
{{{
Template u'base.html' cannot be extended, because it doesn't exist
}}}
error is subtle, but simply put, you cannot specify non-ASCII bytestrings
in TEMPLATE_DIRS.
Full explanation: {{{ {% extends "base.html" %} }}}is now interpreted as a
unicode template filename {{{u'base.html'}}} which causes a
{{{UnicodeDecodeError}}} when {{{os.path.join}}}ed with the template dir
as the loader searches for the template. Unfortunately it
[http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/template/loaders/filesystem.py#L15
gets swallowed] because {{{UnicodeDecodeError}}} is a subclass of
{{{ValueError}}}, and {{{ValueError}}} is also raised when {{{safe_join}}}
detects that the join is not safe.
The errors from safe_join should not be silently ignored. Suppressing them
makes it hard to debug. There could also be a better error message when
searching {{{TEMPLATE_DIRS}}} raises {{{UnicodeDecodeError}}}.
