Thanks for the response Andy.
The code does work fine in the interpreter. It's when the code is
called from a web page where it throws an error. I know it has
something to do with unicode but I can't understand why os.stat is
behaving differently. To test from a view:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Relevant URL in urls.py
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/published/www/django/catalog/music# grep demo
urls.py
(r'^demo/$', 'music.views.demo'),
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call to checkpath from views.py
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/published/www/django/catalog/music# head -16
views.py
import django.shortcuts as shortcuts
from django.template import RequestContext
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
import models
import music.demo
def demo(request):
music.demo.checkpath()
return HttpResponseRedirect('http://google.com')
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the error (via http://domain.tld/demo)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
