XZise added a subscriber: XZise. XZise added a comment. With Python 3 the `sys.stdout` etc. streams are now using `str` (which is basically `unicode` in Python 2). But in Python 2 it requires `bytes` so it's encoding the string as UTF-8 bytes. Now the Unicode support in Windows is always a bit problematic. I don't have a Windows OS available at the moment to test that quickly, but one way to fix it would be not to encode it. I'll provide a patch shortly and would appreciate if you test it (especially with non ASCII characters). Apart from that (referencing to the discussion @Sitic linked to) I don't think that Python 3 is only partially supported. I basically only use it with Python 3.4.2 and got not problems (but on Linux so I can't encounter this particular bug).

XZise added a comment. Oh I usually look at the end of a stack trace and work my way up… overlooked the first line. That error might be related but only in a sense that Python 3 changed how `str` works. Unfortunately that error line isn't really helpful (except that it occurred somewhere else).

Dalba added a comment. Sorry, It seems that I missed this -- seemingly related -- warning message when importing pywikibot: WARNING: Running on Windows and transliteration_target is not set. Please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Pywikibot/Windows exception UnsupportedOperation('fileno',) while fixing up sys.stdout and sys.stderr @Sitic: It works fine in command prompt. @XZise: I applied the patch and now it logs in successfully. But still got the following error when trying to save a test edit: Page [[fa:وyکy‌پدyا:صفحه تمرyن]] saved Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#12>", line 1, in <module> p.put('تمرين', ' ') File "c:/core\pywikibot\page.py", line 1117, in put **kwargs) File "c:/core\pywikibot\tools\__init__.py", line 930, in wrapper return obj(*__args, **__kw) File "c:/core\pywikibot\page.py", line 1036, in save **kwargs) File "c:/core\pywikibot\page.py", line 1052, in _save pywikibot.output(u"Page %s saved" % link) File "c:/core\pywikibot\bot.py", line 457, in output logoutput(text, decoder, newline, INFO, **kwargs) File "c:/core\pywikibot\bot.py", line 427, in logoutput logger.log(_level, text, extra=context, **kwargs) File "C:\Python34\lib\logging\__init__.py", line 1341, in log self._log(level, msg, args, **kwargs) File "C:\Python34\lib\logging\__init__.py", line 1409, in _log self.handle(record) File "C:\Python34\lib\logging\__init__.py", line 1419, in handle self.callHandlers(record) File "C:\Python34\lib\logging\__init__.py", line 1481, in callHandlers hdlr.handle(record) File "C:\Python34\lib\logging\__init__.py", line 853, in handle self.emit(record) File "c:/core\pywikibot\userinterfaces\terminal_interface_base.py", line 434, in emit return self.UI.output(text, targetStream=self.stream) File "c:/core\pywikibot\userinterfaces\terminal_interface_base.py", line 191, in output self._print(text, targetStream) File "c:/core\pywikibot\userinterfaces\terminal_interface_base.py", line 132, in _print self.printColorized(text, targetStream) File "c:/core\pywikibot\userinterfaces\terminal_interface_win32.py", line 99, in printColorized targetStream.write(text.encode(self.encoding, 'replace')) File "C:\Python34\lib\idlelib\PyShell.py", line 1344, in write raise TypeError('must be str, not ' + type(s).__name__) TypeError: must be str, not bytes (Although the edit was saved.)

Dalba added a comment. I don't know, probably my mistake in applying the patch. Sorry about that. Anyway I reapplied both of your patches and now everything is OK. Both log-in and page saving were done without a single error. Thanks XZise!

XZise added a comment. Okay both patches have been merged… We'll see if now other Windows users without IDLE complain. By the way you don't need to be sorry ;) mistakes happen and in the end it worked \o/ TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T91921 REPLY HANDLER ACTIONS Reply to comment or attach files, or !close, !claim, !unsubscribe or !assign <username>.
