I'm getting an odd error with Google App Engine devserver 1.3.5, and Python 2.5.4, on Windows.
A sample row in the CSV:
EQS,550,foobar,"<some><html><garbage /></html></some>",odp,Ti4=,http://url.com,success
The error:
..................................................................................................................[ERROR ] [Thread-1] WorkerThread:

Is the error being generated by an issue with a base64 string, of which there is one in every row?

The data loader:
class CourseLoader(bulkloader.Loader):
def __init__(self):
bulkloader.Loader.__init__(self, 'Course',
[('dept_code', str),
('number', int),
('title', str),
('full_description', str),
('unparsed_pre_reqs', str),
('pickled_pre_reqs', lambda x: base64.b64decode(x)),
('course_catalog_url', str),
('parse_succeeded', lambda x: x == 'success')
])
loaders = [CourseLoader]
Is there a way to tell from the traceback which row caused the error?
UPDATE: It looks like there are two characters causing errors: è, and ®. How can I get Google App Engine to handle them?
