Problem Creating a User

Has the creation of a user I have an error.
"Encoding::CompatibilityError in User#terms"

and log rails server

This is an installation/configuration error in your environment and not an issue with the software.

My best guess by the way, as I've already said on IRC, is that you are somehow running your ruby process in a single byte ASCII encoding.

I know you said you were using bundle exec rails server to start the builtin rails web server in which case, if you're on linux, you could try setting LANG=en.utf8 in the environment before running it, though I thought pretty much all modern linuxes defaulted to a UTF8 locale.

If it's not linux then you'll need to find out how to control the default locale for ruby on your platform.

The trouble was in config/legales/GB.yml where "owner's" got a strange quote instead of a normal quote. At least this solved my problem.
Solved with @psychiclocust ;)

Well yes that has a UTF8 encoded smart quote and the french one will have UTF8 encoded accents. None of that would be a problem if your ruby was running in UTF8 mode though and running it in single byte is probably just going to break in other places.
