Django translation makemessage error

I'm creating django multilingual website.

Settings.py

USE_I18N = True

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                'django.template.context_processors.debug',
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
                'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
                'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
                'django.template.context_processors.i18n',
            ],
        },
    },
]

MIDDLEWARE = [
    'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',

]
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

LANGUAGES = (
    ('en', _('English')),
    ('de', _('German')),
)
LOCALE_PATHS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'locale'),
)

template:

<h5>{% trans "Hello, this is testing page" %}</h5>

urls:

from django.conf.urls.i18n import i18n_patterns

from django.conf.urls import  include, url

    urlpatterns  = [
      url(r'^rev/', rev, name="rev"),
      url(r'^userprofile/', userprofile, name="profile"),
]

views:

@login_required
def rev(request):
  return render_to_response('rev.html', {'client': request.user.client, 'user': request.user})

@login_required
@require_http_methods(["GET"])
def userprofile(request):
  return render(request, 'userprofile.html', {
    'user': request.user, 
    'form': UserProfileForm(instance=request.user)
  })

So, using python makemessage -l de command I got next error:

CommandError: errors happened while running msguniq
msguniq: \u041d\u0435\u0432\u043e\u0437\u043c\u043e\u0436\u043d\u043e \u043f\u0440\u0435\u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0437\u043e\u0432\u0430\u0442\u044c \u0438\u0437 \xabASCII\xbb \u0432 \xabUTF-8\xbb.  msguniq \u043f\u043e\u043b\u0430\u0433\u0430\u0435\u0442\u0441\u044f \u043d\u0430 iconv(). \u042d\u0442\u0430 \u0432\u0435\u0440\u0441\u0438\u044f \u0431\u044b\u043b\u0430 \u0441\u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430 \u0431\u0435\u0437 iconv().

I think, that I set urls incorrect. All answers about it are at least 3-4 years old, on newest django version , setting urlpatterns = i18n_patterns[....] causes error:

TypeError: 'function' object is not subscriptable

GNU gettext installed.

Why Am I really getting this error, and I know, that it is forbidden here to advice anything:) Does anyone have working example with connecting JS (language buttons on website or something) with django translations.

Solved. This problem appears because of 2 GNU Gettext installed (different version) 1 was already installed another I've installed by myself. Setting path in PyCharm(yes, my django project is in PyCharm) to newest gnu gettext in terminal solved my problem.

MIDDLEWARE = [
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
]

LocaleMiddleware must add between SessionMiddleware and CommonMiddleware.
