[LON-CAPA-users] Could not process request

[Gerd Kortemeyer]

Hi Richard,

Fixed. There was a unicode character inside the title of one of the  
resources, and the Perl version you have running choked on it.

http://bugs.lon-capa.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4241

- need to test with newer versions of Perl. Anyway, you are back in  
business.

- Gerd.
