RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Hi,
I try to register my fresh redhat EL system 6.4 via the subscription-manager command line and I get this message after entering my login and password :
'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe8 in position 9: invalid continuation byte
This is my rhsm.log :
2014-10-23 15:54:35,787 [ERROR] @managercli.py:148 - Erreur lors de l'enrrgistrementÂ| : 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe8 in position 9: invalid continuation byte

The version of the subscription-manager is 1.8.22-1.el6_4.x86_64.
Kind of regards.
I know that a few "'utf8' codec can't decode" issues have been resolved in newer builds of subscription-manager. Try registering in English and then yum upgrade subscription-manager*
[root@jsefler ~]# LANG=en_US.utf-8 subscription-manager register --autosubscribe

[root@jsefler ~]# yum upgrade subscription-manager*
Hello,
thanks for the reply but I still have same issue even when I set the LANG value.
'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe8 in position 9: invalid continuation byte
Hi,
I finally set LANG and ALL_LANG to C value in the /etc/sysconfig/i18n and reboot the system and then try a registration. System registrated :-)
Thanks a lot for your assistance.
Kind of regards.
