Hi, The problem has been solved. There was a corruption within a user's email address, there was a character that could not be decoded so it caused errors with permissions and the datasets the user had uploaded. -- Chris On Fri, Feb 8, 2013 at 3:59 PM, <galaxy-dev-request@lists.bx.psu.edu> wrote:

In our local Galaxy server an error came up today. When I try to edit the permissions of data librarles via the Admin panel I get the following error: (Also attached is an image of the following error)

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

We are using a modified version of Galaxy. The info from hg (latest galaxy-dist we have pulled):

changeset: 7828:b5bda7a5c345 user: Nate Coraor <nate@bx.psu.edu> date: Fri Oct 05 15:49:26 2012 -0400 summary: Fix the Compute tool to only allow for execution of a limited set of expressions.

What we have to do to fix it?

Thanks, Christos
