Hi,
I ve been trying to figure out why I can t handle utf-8 properly on my
production server, while it works perfectly on my local django dev
server
When I try to run this line
unicode_data.decode("utf-8")
With data coming from DB
" Rémi "
I get on production only
'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9'
I spent a lot of time on the forums and I could fixed that rather
easily on my dev server with the addition of DEFAULT_CHARSET = 'utf-8'
in settings.py and re-defining collations and charsets in DB.
But for some reason there is still some ascii conversion in production
and it s driving me Crazy!!!
I tried it all, I don t know what to do next. Please help!
