SyntaxError Non-ASCII character in file

Asked by Nitin Chaudhari

Hi RaiMan,
Am having SikuliX 2.0.3 and xlrd 1.2.0.
Using xlrd to read excel file. But getting error at the begining itself.
--------------------------------------------------
error] script [ Excel_Read ] stopped with error in line 1
[error] SyntaxError ( Non-ASCII character in file 'C:\Users\tibco2\AppData\Roaming\Sikulix\Lib\xlrd\licences.py',
but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details )
[error] --- Traceback --- error source first
line: module ( function ) statement
11: __init__ ( <module> ) from . import licences
1: main ( <module> ) import xlrd
[error] --- Traceback --- end --------------
--------------------------------------------------
By refering other threads; have modified the licences.py, __init__ .py. with " # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- ".
Still getting the same error.

What could be the reason and possible solution for above error.

Regards,
Nitin Chaudhari

There seems to be something wrong with your xlrd Installation.
As far as I know xlrd 1.2.0 does not have a licences.py file.
I suggest that you remove everything related to xlrd from your system and install it again.
