[Pyzo] Cannot run pyzo on linux anymore

[Almar Klein]

Hi Hugo,

Sorry for the late reaction.

It looks like the config.ssdf in your Pyzo appdata directory (~/.pyzo) has non-utf8 characters in it.

Hi everyone,

Pyzo doesn't want to start anymore, could anybody help? I'm running Mint 18 Xfce; it worked fine until last week, but all of a sudden it refuses to start. I tried upgrading pyzo (sudo python3 -m pip install pyzo --upgrade) to pyzo-4.3.1, and even pip, but no luck. The error is as follows:

$ pyzo
Started our command server
Uncaught Python exception: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x86 in position 1: invalid start byte
File "/usr/local/bin/pyzo", line 9, in <module>
load_entry_point('pyzo==4.3.1', 'console_scripts', 'pyzo')()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 542, in load_entry_point
return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2569, in load_entry_point
return ep.load()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2229, in load
return self.resolve()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2235, in resolve
module = __import__(self.module_name, fromlist=['__name__'], level=0)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pyzo/__init__.py", line 284, in <module>
loadConfig()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pyzo/__init__.py", line 208, in loadConfig
userConfig = ssdf.load(fname)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pyzo/util/zon.py", line 176, in load
text = file.read().decode('utf-8')

I'm not sure if I should report it on the bug tracker, since I don't know if it's a pyzo bug or a 'me' bug :) Thanks for your help!
Cheers,

[Hugo Labrande]

Ah thank you! I uninstalled pyzo, deleted the ~/.pyzo folder, then
re-installed, and it works again! Thanks a lot!!
