I am trying to follow Django tutorial (Django 1.9, Python 2.7) to implement my polls project, but style.css did not take effect (neither the color nor the backgroud image). https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/intro/tutorial06/
When running the server, I observed the UnicodeDecodeError due to 'ascii' codec.
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xb0 in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)
I followed the suggestion by set system default encoding to utf8, but when server was running it threw similar error due to 'utf8'.
How to fix: "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte"
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xb0 in position 1: invalid start byte
So I think neither ascii nor utf8 is enough, and how can I fix it? I saw some posts provided some suggestion like json.loads, but I have no idea how to add in my Django project.
json.loads(unicode(opener.open(...), "ISO-8859-1")),
utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x89 in position 15: invalid start byte
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 3-6: invalid data
