This is weird as I would have expected a logging problem in alertmanager to have appeared long before now.

What version of libtorrent are you using? Is this repeatable or a one-off occurrence?

[non7top]

dev-lang/python 2.7.2-r3 net-libs/rb_libtorrent 0.15.6

I believe the error appears for torrents which have cyrillic in their names and the issue does not re-appear when I run 'deluged --do-not-daemonize -L debug'

I've added line 'print ("TEST", alert.message())' in alertmanager.py and here is the output of relevant lines

('TEST', '\xd0\x93\xd0\xb0\xd1\x80\xd1\x80\xd0\xb8 \xd0\x9f\xd0\xbe\xd1\x82\xd1\x82\xd0\xb5\xd1\x80 \xd0\xb8 \xd1\x82\xd0\xb0\xd0\xb9\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb0\xd1\x8f \xd0\xba\xd0\xbe\xd0\xbc\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb0\xd1\x82\xd0\xb0 (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - Extended Cut).2002.BDRip.1080p.-MySiLU.mkv: state changed to: downloading')

Hope this helps

[non7top]

I changed line 124 in alertmanager.py to following and error is gone and correct cyrillic torrent names are shown in log file. Apparently there was a double utf-8->utf-8 conversion.

log.debug("%s: %s", alert_type, alert.message().decode("utf8"))

[Cas]

I thought so, encoding again in the python logging results in the unicode error and I realised that in git master logging code was changed. The new code specifies 'utf8' encoding to file so that's why it fails.

Could you try this workaround instead:  https://github.com/cas--/Deluge/commit/710dc495b2a7

[non7top]

The workaround worked just fine

[Cas]

I think this will have to be the actual fix since we cannot guarantee that logging messages passed in other parts of our code will pass unicode.

[non7top]

Please commit to master

[non7top]

Please commit to master. The patch cleanely applies to latest git master.

[Cas]

I decided to change all the alert messages strings to be utf8 instead and will commit the code soon.
