I try to run a rails app (Airesis), using apache2 and passenger. The erb files contain UTF-8 encoded characters. I see

Encoding::CompatibilityError (incompatible character encodings: ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8):

errors, corresponding to lines in the erb containing utf-8 encoded characters. Interestingly another machine with the exact same setup up from rvm does not have this issue. The only difference we could identify that the working machine had hu_HU.UTF-8 as the default locale, as the non-working had C. But the problem did not go away after changing the system locale.

Tried to specify 

<% # -*- coding: UTF-8 -*- %>

In the beginning of the erb file, checked that the Application class have

config.encoding = "utf-8"

added

Encoding.default_external = "UTF-8"

to the beginning of config/application.rb, added

export RUBYOPT=-Ku

to /etc/default/apache2, and 

SetEnv RUBYOPT=-Ku

to the apache config file.

None of them solved the problem.

I use apache2, and all ruby related things, including passenger installed using rvm by root. Versions: ruby 2.1.0p0 (2013-12-25 revision 44422) [x86_64-linux] Rails 4.0.2 passenger 4.0.56

Any help is appreciated.

Using non ASCII characters in /config/application.yml can couse this error.
