UnicodeEncodeError since upgrading to 0.55

[cliffi]

Version: 0.55
OS: Windows XP Pro Sp3
Install-type: Windows installer
Skin (if applicable): Plush
Firewall Software: None
Are you using IPV6? no

Since upgrading from 0.54 to 0.55 i get an Postprocessing Error with every file i download. Here some lines from the logfile.
Downgrading (installing in the same Directory) to 0.54 solves the problem. Any Ideas?

Every download? Sounds a bit unlikely.
Any specific NZB? Because such issues usually have to do with files containing non US-ASCII characters.
Do you have German as skin language?

[cliffi]

yes, every download since the update, but the Downloads are ok, i just dont get an email anymore.
I just check out the Skin language.

edit: skin is plush-aqua, language is german

just did a simple check with a simple mp3, same behaviour:

Edit2: after disabling of the Email Notification i dont get no error anymore.

is that helpfull in any way?

okok, a last Edit for today: thats the output of trying to send a testmail:

500 Internal Server Error

The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

OK, that's useful info.
It looks like the creation of the email is crashing.
Because you have German as skin language it will pick a German email template.
You make a work-around by overwriting the file "c:\program files\SABnzbd\language\email-de-de.tmpl"
with the file "c:\program files\SABnzbd\language\email-us-en.tmpl".
This will make your email English again.

I think I know enough to fix this.

[cliffi]

ok, here the log with the german template:

2010-11-09 23:11:49,482::INFO::[emailer:114] Notification e-mail succesfully sent


this works for me, thanks for your fast help!! and keep up the good work!!!

[shypike]

The cause is a bug in the Cheetah module we use to handle the email templates.
I upgraded the module and the problem is gone.
The fix will be included in 0.5.6 (within a week or so).

Hijacking this thread as I have a similar problem.
I'm not getting this error for all NZB's, only a few.

The error messages say it's an empty NZB
When I try to run the NZB again from the queue I get:

But this morning I tried yet again, got the same error message but the file started downloading...

I have swedish language but have made no changes to any skin-settings. Running on Synology DS1512+

[shypike]

Do the NZB names have accented characters?

[andypandyswe]

No, doesn't appear to be... Can I send you some log entries?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards

Andy

[shypike]

Sure, preferably also the problematic NZB files.
bugs@sabnzbd.org
Please also add the URl of this post.

[andypandyswe]

Ok, sorry I already PM'ed you... I'll try and put it together when I get home.

The earlier poster had an issue with email templates.
Does the problem occur at the end of a job, when trying to send an email?
You'll see that I said that the Cheetah module was the cause of the problem.
Now for complete packages for OSX and Windows, we control which software is used,
so for those the issue has been solved a long time ago.
On embedded platforms we have no control.
It looks like you're using an "embedded" system (like a NAS).
Where did you get the required Python and its modules?
Are you using a ready-made package?
