Can't start app with Python 2.7 and Django (probably something with encoding)

Question

When I starts Python 2.7+Django app and try to go http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ I see only text without normal display. It happens only winth Python 2.7. When I use Python 3.3 everything is OK. But I need exactly Python 2.7. Here is my errors

Answer 1

I find answer! It needed create file sitecustomize.py C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages. And write there:

import sys

sys.setdefaultencoding("cp1251")

And all works)
