[Aditya Gupta]

Hello All,

I have creating one custom fact in power shell which gets software installed in the system.

If windows system has software as UTF-16 encoding :

"DisplayName"="Outils de v?rification linguistique 2013 de Microsoft Office?- Fran?ais"

"DisplayName"="Microsoft Office Proofing Tools 2013 - Espa?ol"

Puppet agent unable to get catalog from server stating below error:

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8

How can i fix encoding error.

Thanks,

Aditya
