Non-latin isn't the issue. Non-ASCII is what it's complaining about
("Latin" usually encompasses things like latin1, a.k.a. ISO-8859-1,
which contains plenty of non-ASCII characters).
If you were really interested in which characters were at issue here,
you could do something like this at the Python prompt (there are other
ways, too, of course, but this is the one-liner):
[p for (p, c) in enumerate(open('myfile').read()) if ord(c) >
127]
That will return a list of positions of characters that are non-ASCII.

Malcolm

Re: Non-ASCII character - strange error
Try put:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
in first line in .py file
Maybe you need change utf-8 to your encoding

Re: Non-ASCII character - strange error
Guys,
Just had the strangest thing happened.
Finished working on my project last night and everything was working fine. I
backed up the directory using tar, log on today and start my development
server and get the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 11, in
execute_manager(settings)
File
"/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/management/__init__.py", line
338, in execute_manager
setup_environ(settings_mod)
File
"/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/core/management/__init__.py", line
316, in setup_environ
project_module = __import__(project_name, {}, {}, [''])
File "/home/dash/djang/pos/../post/__init__.py", line 1
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xa3' in file
/home/dash/djang/pos/../post/__init__.py on line 2, but no encoding
declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
I just fixed the problem, by starting a new project, a new app, then using
the same mysql database and simply copying models.py and admin .py from my
old app folder to the new folder. Now it's working without problem.
I am living in Japan and do occasionally type japanese, but i'm almost sure
there were no non latin chars at any point in any of my code.
Has anyone ever heard of this before? What could of caused it? not the tar
surely?
