Encoding::UndefinedConversionError

[volkanunsal]

I started seeing this error message today, along with this explanatory text.

"\xC3" from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8

Any idea what I can do to fix it?

btw, I am using clousre compiler. When I switch to YUI I get this error message instead.

YUI::Compressor::RuntimeError

I get the same error and took the alexandrebini fork in the meantime

In 1.9, read an non-ASCII file as binary, the content encoding will not be valid.

We can not assume the file was utf-8 neither due to other possibility.

Just read file as normal may be a good choice(also solve this issue), but I don't known is this gonna broken other functions.

I tried that, but didn't work for me.

What was the error raised then?

It maybe raised due to your file was neither ASCII nor utf-8.

[volkanunsal]

Same error(s). But no mention of any files in sight. I'd gladly change the formatting if I knew the file causing this.

Is there a particular patch here we can adopt to fix this?
