Weird. From what I can tell, this seems to have something to do with Cygwin, or at least I'm able to replicate it in that environment. Setting NLS_LANG in or out of process and changing the registry key all have no effect. Is there some reason you need to use Cygwin for this? Perhaps you would have more luck with the regular win32 python. Ian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
