Topic on Manual talk:Pywikibot

I was having trouble uploading python pwb.py upload.py -keep -noverify -ignorewarn "/…/BSicon hÜST.svg" narrow formations. Do I need to escape the Ü?

No idea. A traceback would help to find out the problem.

(Third comment in thread; had previous revisions suppressed)

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 884: ordinal not in range(128)

Seems the traceback isn't complete. I propose to file a bug at phabricator:

(I've tried changing multiple instances of "ascii" in the config files to "utf-8" but there was no effect.)
