Oh you US people, I get internal server error when I try to activate account which contains ä character in the full name field...
And when trying to change my name from the account page:
Display Name can only contain letters, numbers, spaces, or the following characters: -_'.@+
Does this affect the Google account login also, it doesn't work for me either.
- elisee 15y agoInternal server error on the confirm link, and my full name has an "é" in it, so I guess it's the same issue. Also, log in with Google Account does nothing / doesn't work either. You really don't wanna let me in, do you? :)
- sschueller 15y agoSame problem with the ü in my name.
- dmarinoc 15y agoSame for me, with an "ñ" in my last name. Kinda ironic after reading Spolsky's article "The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!" :D link: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html
- jongisli 15y agoSame for me. My google account also has problems. I've already fixed my email for the account with the special characters... am I done for then?
- rbreve 15y agoPython sucks at unicode, maybe they used python, not sure though.

- uriel 15y agoOff topic: Proper, consistent and through UTF-8 support is one of the various reasons I'm starting to prefer Go to Pytho. It is sad that Python 3 didn't take the opportunity to properly fix this.
- beagle3 15y agoI thought Python3 sort-of did fix it, by forcing strings to be (abstractly) unicode and force you to explicit convert them to bytes with whichever codec you want (e.g. utf-8) when you need to. What are you missing?
- Pewpewarrows 15y agoErr... what? It's easier to shoot yourself in the foot, sure. But I haven't had unicode issues since I learned how to handle things properly years ago, when I was first getting into development.
- Tyrannosaurs 15y agoSame problem for a member of my team with a accented e in her name.
- mhp 15y agoThis should be fixed now (11:45 AM EST Wed Sep 14)
