Hi, I am a new QGIS user. The program was working fine until I tried to use the Python Console which just does't open. I hope someone can help me out with this. Here is the description of my problem:
Operating Syste: Windows 7 (64 bit) QGIS: 2.0.1 - Dufour Installation: osgeo4w (64bit) Problem: When I try to open the Python Console ("Plugins" --> "Python Console") an error message appears. When I close error window, I am back on QGIS interface. I have already tried to re-install everything, but it didn't fix the problem. I also tried going into the file and changing utf8 encoding to ascii, but the file is protected and I cannot save it once modified. Error message: Failed to open Python console: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 2, in File "C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python\console\console.py", line 43, in show_console _console = PythonConsole( parent ) File "C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python\console\console.py", line 75, in __init__ self.console = PythonConsoleWidget(self) File "C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python\console\console.py", line 103, in __init__ self.shellOut = ShellOutputScintilla(self) File "C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python\console\console_output.py", line 97, in __init__ self.insertInitText() File "C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python\console\console_output.py", line 139, in insertInitText socket.gethostname()) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xeb in position 5: ordinal not in range(128) Python version: 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:44:16) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] QGIS version: 2.0.1-Dufour 'Dufour', d94c044 Python path: ['C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python/plugins\\processing', 'C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python', 'C:\\Users\\raphael_luthi/.qgis2/python', 'C:\\Users\\raphael_luthi/.qgis2/python/plugins', 'C:/OSGEO4~1/apps/qgis/./python/plugins', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\bin\\python27.zip', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\DLLs', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\bin', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\PIL', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\win32', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\win32\\lib', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\Pythonwin', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\Shapely-1.2.18-py2.7-win-amd64.egg', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\six-1.3.0-py2.7.egg', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\wx-2.8-msw-unicode', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\xlrd-0.9.2-py2.7.egg', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages\\xlwt-0.7.5-py2.7.egg', 'C:\\OSGEO4~1\\apps\\qgis\\python\\plugins\\fTools\\tools'] Thanks to anyone who can help!
