Should investigate on versions and all.

Fails with production 1.3.1, with different stacktrace though.

I think the result depends of the archive content.
Using 'req.content' instead of 'req.text' in 'rest.py' looks to solve the issue and still work for others requests. Will test it a bit more.

Tested on some other commands, was working for me, let us know if any other commands stopped working.
