Plasmic Start

Hello I have this error message when starting Plasmic
Can someone help me please.

2024-03-01 11:28:10,875 - QTvcp - CRITICAL - Aborted from Error Dialog
 Qtvcp encountered an error.  The following information may be useful in troubleshooting:
LinuxCNC Version  : 2.10.0-pre0-2816-gf9fe1d439b

Traceback (most recent call last):

    STATUS.connect('machine-log-changed',lambda w: self.loadLog())
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/qtvcp/widgets/machine_log.py", line 80, in loadLog
    self.setPlainText(str(logText, encoding='utf8'))
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 34: invalid continuation byte

Thanks Kaj

I moved this to Qtvcp as it's an issue opening the log file as part of qtvcp loading.  

What locale are you using?  

kaj@debian:~$ locale
LANG=de_DE
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="de_DE"
LC_NUMERIC="de_DE"
LC_TIME="de_DE"
LC_COLLATE="de_DE"
LC_MONETARY="de_DE"
LC_MESSAGES="de_DE"
LC_PAPER="de_DE"
LC_NAME="de_DE"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE"
LC_ALL=

I switched to en_US.UTF-8 and it works

Thanks Kaj

Thanks for the feedback, we’ll try to look into why this failed in the first place, but good to know you got it going.
