I use Ruby 1.9.2 and Rails 3.0.5
I have the following error:
incompatible character encodings: ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8
It has nothing to do with the database i think.
The error is happinging on this line in a view (just a div haml call):
#content
full stack:
ActionView::Template::Error (incompatible character encodings: ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8):
21: -flash.each do |name, msg|
22: =content_tag :div, msg, :id => "flash_#{name}"
23: %div.clear
24: #content
25: = yield
26: = render :partial => "layouts/grid_right" if render_grid_right?
27: = render :partial => "layouts/footer"

I have a suspicion that you either copy/pasted a part of your Haml template into the file, or you’re working with a non-Unicode/non-UTF-8 friendly editor.
See if you can recreate that file from the scratch in a UTF-8 friendly editor. There are plenty for any platform and see whether this fixes your problem. Start by erasing the line with
#contentand retyping it manually.
