Hi.
This is a known Python issue [1]. We've made a small "patch" [2] which will
warn you about it and "temporary" give you the possibility to run a sqlmap.
For example:
python sqlmap.py -hh
[13:53:03] [CRITICAL] there is a known Python issue (#1616979) related to
support for charset 'cp720'. Please visit '
http://blog.oneortheother.info/tip/python-fix-cp720-encoding/index.html'
and follow the instructions to be able to fix it
[13:53:03] [WARNING] temporary switching to charset 'cp1256'
Usage: python sqlmap.py [options]
....
Please download the latest revision to have sqlmap up to date.
Kind regards,
Miroslav Stampar
