Django non-rel createsuperuser fails due to non-ascii characters

问题

I am tring to create a new superuser on my django app engine project, In order to gain access to the built in admin functions. Every time when I run

python manage.py createsuperuser

I get an error saying " "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'mkstemp'" "

I tried to reinstall django python and the app engine sdk, with no luck, I moved the project into a directory that has no non-ascii letters in it's path as I feared it might be the cause of the problem, again, with no luck... I am out of ideas...

This is the complete traceback of the exception thrown:

Anyone?

Since you haven't passed any arguments to it, createsuperuser.py uses the Python getpass module to get a default user name. (Line 59, createsuperuser.py):

        # Try to determine the current system user's username to use as a default.
    try:
        default_username = getpass.getuser().replace(' ', '').lower()
    except (ImportError, KeyError):
        # KeyError will be raised by os.getpwuid() (called by getuser())
        # if there is no corresponding entry in the /etc/passwd file
        # (a very restricted chroot environment, for example).
        default_username = ''

Seems to me getpass.getuser() isn't returning a string that can be decoded by Python's UTF-8 decoder. My guess is the default user name on your Windows installation is encoded in some older, non-unicode 8-bit encoding. Perhaps you have some accented characters in your default Windows username, for e.g.?

This bug apparently has been reported on the main branch for Django, and so perhaps one of the workarounds documented here may do the trick for you:
