The problem here is that the error message is trying to write to an output device using ASCII. If there is no error, there is no error message print attempt. The error message, when written to an ASCII device, needs to be escaped. You don't show the code, so it is hard to say more about the issue.

Jiri, if you are still having this problem in 3.9+, and Glenn's suggestion to escape the error is not helpful, please create a new issue and include code to reproduce it. Python 2.7 is no longer maintained.
