I want to create a zip file within a Python 2.7 program on windows.
My code:
cmd = ['7za.exe','a','-tzip',archive] + files
status = subprocess.call(cmd)
leads to:
File "fexit.py", line 971, in sendfile_retry
status = subprocess.call(cmd)
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 522, in call
return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 958, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 87:
ordinal not in range(128)
This is because the array "files" contains filenames with non-ASCII
characters.
So, the problem is in subprocess.py, which I cannot modify.
What can I do?
