27725	requests.post fail inside of django shell but not python shell	paulfab	nobody	"When I execute :
requests.post(""https://slack.com/api/chat.postMessage"", data=  {""channel"": ""maison""})
it fails in the django shell (python manage.py shell) with the error :

{{{
InvalidCodepoint: Codepoint U+002A at position 1 of u'*' not allowed
}}}


but it doesnt fail in the python shell
So this tells me it is probable something Django related
It was working before, and the only thing I changed is that I updated the SSL certificate of my server

Thanks
