Invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 error for anything but ASCII
Added by Nikola Kotur over 14 years ago
Using version 0.8 Stable I encounter redMine 500 Internal error whenever somebody enters non-ASCII characters (for example, Serbian specific šćđ, etc).
This is what log says:
Processing ApplicationController#diff (for 212.200.238.6 at 2009-11-25 10:23:01) [GET]
Parameters: {"controller"=>"repositories", "action"=>"diff", "id"=>"XXXXXXXX", "rev"=>"05e3bef2a586e8eed76a4b0a3e187596150923bd"}
ArgumentError (invalid byte sequence in UTF-8):
<internal:prelude>:8:in `synchronize'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/webrick/httpserver.rb:111:in `service'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/webrick/httpserver.rb:70:in `run'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/webrick/server.rb:183:in `block in start_thread'
Rendering /opt/redmine/public/500.html (500 Internal Server Error)
It doesn't matter what controller or action is, it happens on issues, wiki, forums, everything.
Is there a known workaround for this bug, or Redmine doesn't support UTF-8?
Please, help, I don't know Ruby, but I do like Redmine.

Rails and Redmine don't fully compatible with Ruby 1.9.1 because of new string implementation in it.

So, which version should I use?
Thanks for the reply.

I think it's Ruby 1.8.6 (or 1.8.7). See RedmineInstall

Thank you, Andrew.
Installing Ruby 1.8.7 and than rebuilding all the gems solved my issue.
