The proposed fix for ir_cron.py fixed the issue for us. Seems to work now.

Yet another unicode error. 'threading.Thread' await a 'name' argument that should be already encoded (or convertible to ascii). Bad luck, it's job["name"] we are feeding in and this is unicode. And this will silently pass until you provide a unicode string that contains devils characters. 2012-05-01 13:22:00,029 6775 WARNING ? openerp.addons.base.ir.ir_cron: Exception in cron: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/vaab/dev/python/openobject-server/openerp/addons/base/ir/ir_cron.py", line 237, in _run_jobs_multithread task_thread = threading.Thread(target=self._run_job, name=job['name'], args=(task_cr, job, now)) File "/opt/apps/python-2.7/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 433, in __init__ self.__name = str(name or _newname()) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 18: ordinal not in range(128) Solution seems easy here: job['name'].encode("utf-8") is better than job['name']. To reproduce, install subscription module, and account, create a subscription type on account.invoice, then a subscription, and put an accentuated character in the name of the subscription: it'll be copied as the name of the ir_cron job. Put the according date in ir_cron so that it'll be triggered soon. Then switch watch your openobject-server logs.
