I am building a Mac OS X app and I have Ruby included in the app. To do this I include Ruby in the app.

When I test my app on my local machine it works fine with my RVM controlled Ruby

When I use the compiled Ruby by changing my environment variables I get the following error (foreman loads the environment variables)

$ pry
[1] pry(main)> Encoding
=> Encoding
[2] pry(main)> exit
$ foreman run pry
[1] pry(main)> Encoding
Encoding::ConverterNotFoundError: code converter not found (US-ASCII to UTF-8 with universal_newline)

    Basically what happened, for whomever is finding this problem, is that the Ruby version I was missing certain files.
    This happened to me because of the shear number of files being processed via Git (there was a maximum number of renamed files or something)

    To resolve this I put a compressed file in the repository instead of the /ruby/ folder

    Then when I expanded the compressed source code and rebuilt with make && make install Ruby stopped throwing these errors.
