Description

Since this 14ab5eb0bda9a5993b9ab15a3b7de1af9df8dcba

I get this error when trying to import data via 'cadastre' module in a PostGIS database :

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 104: ordinal not in range(128) 
Traceback (most recent call last):

Version de Python : 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:44:16) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] 
Version de QGIS : 2.18.10 Las Palmas, 59e0f78

It look like the use of the str function in the connector create this error.

Have you some solution to fix this ? Is it a configuration problem with my environment ?
I tried both on a Debian and Windows platform and each time with the 2.18 version of QGis I have this error.

Can you please describe the steps to follow in order to replicate? I'm not familiar with the "cadastre" module (plugin?). Thanks!

I don't think that you can reproduce it easily as files needed to import data are privates one, their access is restricted to public administration because they includes data on parcels owners.

Actually the developpers of this module work on a patch to handle this bug at the module level : https://github.com/3liz/QgisCadastrePlugin/issues/106

so the developer of "cadastre" thinks is a "cadastre" issue and not a DB Manager one?
