Here’s the stack: Sproutcore 1.0.1046. Ruby 1.9.1, in RVM. Thin 1.2.7. Thor 0.13.8. Rack 1.2.1. Eventmachine 0.12.10. Erubis 2.6.6.
When I start the sc-server on any application, my first request to this server produces this in the console log:
ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII
…followed by this stack trace. (I’ve listed gems which appear in the stack trace above, but there’s a complete gemset list in the same gist as the stack trace.)
Research on the error message points out that this is a common problem with Ruby 1.9, but the stack trace suggests that the problem is in one of the gems somewhere.
I have:
- Upgraded my OS (Mac OS X 10.5 to 10.6) in order to get the latest
gccApple provides. - Reinstalled RVM.
- Reinstalled Ruby.
- Reinstalled all the relevant gems.
And yet I still have this problem on one system, but not on another. (N.B. there are several devs working on this code, and I’m the only one seeing this problem. I’m 99% certain it’s not our code.) I guess what I’m saying is that I’ve cleared and rebuilt a lot of gems to try to isolate or remove this glitch, and yet I still haven’t gotten rid of it.
Where should I look next?
You have some special setting in your bash environment that is setting ruby to use US-ASCII , this happened to me trying to execute sc-server from a remote terminal… I’m not really sure what it is, but it doesn’t use UTF-8 and that’s when it runs into trouble.
