Error while creating a SageMaker endpoint

[BipashaK2020]

Hi,

I am pretty new to AWS SageMaker and am trying to recreate the SageMaker Example https://github.com/aws/amazon-sagemaker-examples/blob/master/advanced_functionality/scikit_bring_your_own/scikit_bring_your_own.ipynb with only the serve functionality.

I have successfully built the SageMaker Model with the Docker image and s3 bucket containing the model in tar.gz format.

However, I am failing to create an endpoint. The traceback from my cloud watch logs reads as:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/flask/app.py", line 2070, in wsgi_app
response = self.full_dispatch_request()

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xa0 in position 27: ordinal not in range(128)

I am desperately trying to figure out the issue but no luck yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
