** Description changed: Whether I use my laptop running 13.04 or my desktop PC running 13.10, I am unable to create a bootable USB drive from any ISO image, even images like 9.04 that used to work fine. - I tried multiple USB keys - I checked MD5 sums - Unetbootbin does the job There is no specific error shown on the command line and the message is - only "Installation failed" (translated from french as launching usb- - creator-gtk with LANG=C gives an error) + only "Installation failed" The error shows up straight away without a delay after pressing the "Make startup disk" button. + + UPDATE 1: I found the error log in ~/.cache and the error is + "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position + 31: ordinal not in range(128)". I tried launching the app with the + command "LANG=en_US.utf8 usb-creator-gtk" and I get the exact same error + (my system is running with the fr_FR.UTF-8 locale) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: usb-creator-gtk 0.2.47.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-34.49-generic 3.8.13.12 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-34-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.5 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Dec 27 11:34:21 2013 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-02-23 (306 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: usb-creator UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to raring on 2013-05-05 (235 days ago) - --- + --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.5 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-02-23 (306 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True Package: usb-creator-gtk 0.2.47.1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: - TERM=xterm - PATH=(custom, no user) - XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> - LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + TERM=xterm + PATH=(custom, no user) + XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> + LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-34.49-generic 3.8.13.12 Tags: raring Uname: Linux 3.8.0-34-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to raring on 2013-05-05 (235 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip libvirtd lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo
