I am trying to include jquery-rails in my Gemfile however I receive the following error:

ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII
An error occured while installing jquery-rails (1.0.19), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install jquery-rails -v '1.0.19'` succeeds before bundling.

gem install jquery-rails -v '1.0.19' produces an error as well.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem?

    I’ve taken a look at the bug reports for jquery-rails and found this error that’s similar to yours. You should try a few of their solutions:

    If you are on Linux or OSX run:

    export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
bundle install

    If that works then you need to modify your profile so those values are set every time you run bundler. Let me know if this works for you.
