STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: SimpleXMLRPCRequestHandler.do_POST() writes the traceback in the HTTP header "X-traceback". But an HTTP header value is ASCII only, whereas a traceback can contain any character (eg. an non-ASCII character from a directory name for this issue).
A simple fix would be to use the ASCII charset with the backslashreplace error handler. Attached patch uses: trace = str(trace.encode('ASCII', 'backslashreplace'), 'ASCII') Is there an easier method to escape non-ASCII characters without double conversion (unicode->bytes and bytes->unicode)? ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +haypo Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15958/xmlrpc_server_ascii_traceback.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7708> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
