Revision history  [back]

When on a question page, I get the 'Callback invoke error: error' message on the following actions: 'delete', 'flag offensive', and vote up and vote down.

I would appreciate any pointers on how to resolve this. It seems to be related to using the wrong encoding at some level of the system, but I'm not sure which part. My messages are localized to Arabic, but I'm not mixing languages, so in settings.py

USE_I18N = True
LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ar'

I have included the log from the dev server for a short session:

#$ python manage.py runserver `hostname -i`:8000
