Lxml Encoding Errors On Production

I am trying to process some data with lxml. It works fine on my development server, but on production the following code: parser = etree.XMLParser(encoding='cp1251') throws: Fil

Solution 1:

There seems to be a bug open about this behavior on OS X where specifying encoding="cp1252" resulted in the error above. The comments also specify other systems as affected: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxml/+bug/707396

Have you tried specifying other encoding types? (to see if it's just a problem with cp1252)
