[Qgis-user] Point sampling tool

[Javier Bustamante]

Hi, I am new to the list.

I am trying to use the "Point Sampling Tool" plugin to extract some raster 
values at specified sampling points.

I have installed the Point Sampling Tool plugin (0.3.3) on Q-gis 1.7.4 under 
Kubuntu 11.10 (linux).

We I try to use the tool
I get the following error:

An error has occured while executing Python code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"/home/busta/.qgis/python/plugins/pointsamplingtool/doPointSamplingTool.py", 
line 98, in updateFieldsList
    self.inData.addItem(str(self.sampItems[i][0].name()) + " : " + 
str(self.sampItems[i][j][0]) + " (source point)")
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf3' in position 
3: ordinal not in range(128)

Python version:
2.7.2+ (default, Oct  4 2011, 20:29:37) 
[GCC 4.6.1]


QGIS version:
1.7.4-Wroclaw Wroclaw, exported

'/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/fTools/tools', 
'/media/Iomega_HDD/spartina_modelos/Clasificacion_ahs_casi/shp']

Can someone suggest some possible solution?

Thank you,
