Description

impala-python shell/impala_shell.py -p -q "select 'é';"
the result is returned, but instead of profile the following error is returned:
UnicodeDecodeError : 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 673: ordinal not in range(128)
Please check for columns containing binary data to find the possible source of the error.

calling "profile;" in the shell interactively also leads to this error

The same command works with Python3
