Description Finn David univentionstaff 2024-09-05 11:40:38 CEST 
When changing the password to one containing the Euro-symbol € in UCS@school, then the UMC modules fail to open up:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tornado/web.py", line 1595, in _execute
    result = yield result
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tornado/gen.py", line 1133, in run
    value = future.result()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/univention/management/console/resources.py", line 734, in get
    headers = self.get_request_header(session, methodname, umcp_command)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/univention/management/console/resources.py", line 794, in get_request_header
    headers['Authorization'] = 'basic ' + base64.b64encode(('%s:%s' % (session.user.username, session.get_umc_password())).encode('ISO8859-1')).decode('ASCII')
UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode character '\u20ac' in position 19: ordinal not in range(256)

Regular UMC modules are affected as well as school specific modules.
