Have you tried unicode(self.request.get('file1'))? There's also
force_unicode function in Django. I use a simplified version of it:
def force_unicode(s):
if not s:
return u''
if isinstance(s, unicode):
return s
try:
return unicode(s)

Thanks again Julian
i tried the syntax that you have given, but this does not solves our
problem
This is the error now i m getting when i use csv_file =
self.request.get('file1').decode('utf-8')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/base/python_runtime/python_lib/versions/1/google/appengin
Prakhil,
Did you resolve this ?
You need to do the convertion to unicode before any split or strip,
try
csv_file = self.request.get('file1').decode('utf-8') on your first
line or if it is urlencoded:
csv_file = urllib.unquote( self.request.get('file1') ).decode('utf-8')

I had the same issue. You can avoid this issue (which is caused by your
unicode wrongly being handed as a str), simply by forcing it to be unicode
like u'mystring' for example.

Hi Julian,
Thanks for your information.
I am trying to upload a CSV file which contains some special
characters (Unicode characters which are not in the ASCII range). The
following is the data which the CSV file contains:
Name Address City
Country
Python2.5 supports unicode and GAE uses it pretty much everywhere
already. I'd say you just have to tell the python method opening your
CSV file to use utf8 encoding, or use decode('utf-8') on the raw data.
