1. event

Add Event item in Django admin. When I add a name which contain Chinese characters. It thrown a exception.

2. Error desc

‘ascii’ codec can’t encode characters in position 0-1: ordinal not in range(128）

3. solution

• Add coding: utf-8 at head in manage.py script file, but it’s none work
• I was referencing a blog topic, then get the work solution:
  add blow code in manage.py

reload(sys)sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8')

It’s work!
