It is not only the CSV upload!
If I just add the following to my controller:
# encoding: utf-8
class HomeController < ApplicationController
def index
@u = "Müsli"
end
end
Error still remains: "invalid byte sequence in UTF-8"
I don't understand that because it says that it is already in
"UTF-8"...
If I just use a special character in a view it is working, e.g. <%=
"Müsli"%>
I read something about that gvim editor saves files in latin encoding
for default. Could that be related to my issue???
Cheers,
Sebastian
