I'm trying to use QGIS MetaSearch plugin to search data stored in our pyCSW catalog. Metasearch will get the correct service info and the GetCapabilities response however, when I try to search the catalog, I get:
Search error: "Record serialization failed: Argument must be bytes or unicode, got 'SpatialRepresentationType'"
Any idea what could be wrong? I'm using the pyCSW server that came with GeoNode. The catalogue url is http://geoinfo.cnpm.embrapa.br/catalogue/csw
MetaSearch is working fine here and is reporting an exception from the server. This is an issue with GeoNode which was fixed here: https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/commit/68ce3806327c7478555bf0e64e761df679e2dede
It looks like you are using a version of GeoNode which predates this fix.
