What file were you editing at that time? Did the file name or contents include any non-ascii characters?

[reklatsmasters]

Yes, path to file contains non-ascii characters.

[alanhamlett]

Which non-ascii characters does it contain?

Also, what's the value of sys.getdefaultencoding() on your computer?

[alanhamlett]

Also, does the unicode filename test test pass on your machine? To check run these commands:

git clone https://github.com/wakatime/wakatime.git
cd wakatime
virtualenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
nosetests

[reklatsmasters]

that was cyrillic characters. sys.getdefaultencoding() returns ascii. The unicode filename test failed.

[alanhamlett]

That test failure was a bug in the tests, can you run git pull inside the wakatime folder then re-run tests with nosetests?

[reklatsmasters]

Now the unicode filename test pass, but i have 15 other tests failed with UnicodeDecodeError exception https://pastebin.com/kWdhij0K.
