Target release: 1.5 → None

if you are zope 2.8

you may try to add

a file call sitecustomize.py with 2 line below in /Zope-X.x/lib/python

-------------
import sys
sys.setdefaultencoding("utf-8")
-------------

then restart zope , it may fix your problem

Setting the default encoding to utf-8 will not solve your problem, it will only sidestep it, don't do this, we probably need to fix something.

Target release: None → 1.5

Can you retry the migration with an svn checkout of the trunk. I just made a change that I hope will fix the issue: http://dev.plone.org/collective/changeset/29068 .

The change shown above didn't fix this, but we've got there in the end!
