    Hello,

    My installation is failing a test but I don't know how to resolve it.

    Python-2.7.3
    MySQL-python-1.2.4b4
    Fedora Core 16 x86_64
    mysql-5.0.67-linux-x86_64-glibc23
    mysql-5.5.28-linux2.6-x86_64
    user "root"
    Database "test" DEFAULT_CHARACTER_SET_NAME=utf8, DEFAULT_COLLATION_NAME=utf8

    Using either of these databases, (5.0.67, 5.5.28), when running test_LONG and test_TEXT called from test_MySQLdb_capabilities I get the following error for both tests:

    UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode characters in position 256-16383: ordinal not in range(256)

    These are the only two tests that setup.py seems to fail. However, the entire test process also does not exit cleanly:

    Error in atexit._run_exitfuncs:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/opt/python-2.7.3/lib/python2.7/atexit.py", line 24, in _run_exitfuncs
    func(*targs, kargs)
    File "/opt/python-2.7.3/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/util.py", line 284, in _exit_function
    info('process shutting down')
    TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable
    Error in sys.exitfunc:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/opt/python-2.7.3/lib/python2.7/atexit.py", line 24, in _run_exitfuncs

    info('process shutting down')
    TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

    Thank you for any advice you can provide.

    Use 1.2.4 and not 1.2.4b4

    Thank you for your fast response.
    The 1.2.4b4 version seems to be the default version linked for this project. Under Files/mysql-python I can access 1.2.3 and prior but I don't see a link for accessing any other revisions of the 1.2.4 release history.
    Under Files/mysql-python-test I can access 1.2.4b4, 1.2.4b3, and 1.2.4b2.

    Can you provide a link for the 1.2.4 release?
