Realised I might have knocked this question out of the public consciousness by replying to my own post with some additional info... Here it is collated into a single (more considered) post.
I have a situation where uWSGI is attempting to load the paste environment, and ``uri`` in deploy's ``loadcontext`` is bytes whereas I believe it should be string, resulting in: TypeError: Type str doesn't support the buffer API I have modified my Deploy to coerce ``uri`` to a string and uWSGI then launches successfully. This issue does not occur with Pyramid's waitress server reading the same .ini file (see trace). Is this an issue with uWSGI sending the wrong type, or should Paste Deploy be more tolerant of bytes/strings in this case?
