Comment:
I had the same problem - it is caused by non-ascii characters in the
Windows username (in my case the username is Paweł).
quick fix (just ignoring the non-ascii character):
contrib\auth\management\commands\createsuperuser.py, line 61:[[br]]
++default_username = getpass.getuser().replace(' ',
'').decode('ascii','ignore').lower()[[br]]
--default_username = getpass.getuser().replace(' ', '').lower()
