Question

i use rails 2.3.9 with ruby 1.9.2 and when i trying to update my model with some russian letters i have error in unicorn log:

Error during failsafe response: incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT
Read error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass>

trace look like this:

/home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:521:in process_client' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:594:inblock in worker_loop' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:592:in each' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:592:inworker_loop' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:482:in block (2 levels) in spawn_missing_workers' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:479:infork' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:479:in block in spawn_missing_workers' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:475:ineach' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:475:in spawn_missing_workers' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:489:inmaintain_worker_count' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn/http_server.rb:299:in join' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/lib/unicorn.rb:13:inrun' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/gems/unicorn-3.0.1/bin/unicorn_rails:208:in <top (required)>' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/bin/unicorn_rails:19:inload' /home/rbdev/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p0@rails2/bin/unicorn_rails:19:in `'

You should ensure that your editor saves files in UTF-8. ASCII afaik is the first part of any charset. That should be the reason you don't get any errors when you leave out the russian chars.

I answered this one here, with a script. Why are all strings ASCII-8BIT after I upgraded to Rails 3?

You need

# coding: UTF-8

at the top of your files, with ruby 1.9. If that doesn't help, it might be your external dependency, such as DB.

you can use gem "russian" (gem is based on l18n) https://github.com/yaroslav/russian in model (instead of russian letters): Russian::translate(:some_word)

in config file (must be encoded in UTF-8): ru: some_word: 'это строка с русскими буквами (this is string with russian letters)'
