I am getting this error in the Django Administration section when I add an entry for a Dashboard object.
When I return to the item in the Admin section, the record has been added and it displays correctly in the list of Dashboard objects. When I click on it, it shows correctly. Only when I add a new one or save one does that happend. And, I noticed that the history is not populated. The traceback is: Environment: Request Method: POST Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/dashboard/dashboard/1/ Django Version: 1.2.1 Python Version: 2.6.2 Installed Applications: ['django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.admin', 'ManagementReview.dashboard'] Installed Middleware: ('django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware') Traceback: File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py" in get_response 100. response = callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/options.py" in wrapper 239. return self.admin_site.admin_view(view)(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/decorators.py" in _wrapped_view 76. response = view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/views/decorators/cache.py" in _wrapped_view_func 69. response = view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/sites.py" in inner 190. return view(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/decorators.py" in _wrapper 21. return decorator(bound_func)(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/decorators.py" in _wrapped_view 76. response = view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/decorators.py" in bound_func 17. return func(self, *args2, **kwargs2) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/db/transaction.py" in _commit_on_success 299. res = func(*args, **kw) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/options.py" in change_view 901. self.log_change(request, new_object, change_message) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/options.py" in log_change 443. object_repr = force_unicode(object), File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/encoding.py" in force_unicode 66. s = unicode(s) File "/Users/Eric/Documents/DjangoProjects/ManagementReview/../ ManagementReview/dashboard/models.py" in __unicode__ 47. return u"%s" % self.name.decode('utf-8') File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/encodings/utf_8.py" in decode 16. return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True) Exception Type: UnicodeEncodeError at /admin/dashboard/dashboard/1/ Exception Value: ('ascii', u"Eric's Nifty D\xe4shboard Entry", 14, 15, 'ordinal not in range(128)') The model looks like this: class Dashboard(models.Model): name = models.CharField("Dashboard name",max_length=100) fiscal_year = models.IntegerField("Fiscal year") region = models.CharField("Region", max_length=30) review_date = models.DateField("Review date") date_completed = models.DateField("Date Completed") def __unicode__(self): return u"%s" % self.name.decode('utf-8') Can somebody help me figure out what is going on here?
