Insight, unable to sign in.

Can't login to Insight, get the following message: Unexpected Error 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 149-150: ordinal not in range (128).

 

Get the same for both my accounts, any ideas?

  • jolag,

     

    My mistake, the fix will actually be in the next maintenance release due later this month.  Please give it a try and let me know if there are any further issues.

    Hi jolag,

     

    Please message me your login(s) and I'll see if there is an issue with the accepted character set.

      Hi jolag,

       

      Thanks for sending me your login name.

       

      * Does your login or anything associated with it (provided real name, etc.) include characters with accents, umlauts, etc.?

      * How was your account originally created?

      * What are the language and region settings on your phone?

        Both accounts was created beginning of 2017 when I registered my newly bought access points. Apart from my email I registered 

        my name as Jonas Lagerlöf. Language on all my iOS devices is English, with regional 
        setting/location set to Sweden. Always use the latest iOS version available.

        Thanks 
        Jonas
