EncodingError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

Hi @grodowski

I got the following problem when tried to use undercover... Any thought where should I start to fix this? 👇

[Jan Grodowski]

Hi @mergulhao! Thanks for reporting this problem

This has been seen before and relates to the parser gem not being able to parse certain strings. I attempted to fix this with #32, which was probably not enough to cover all cases.

This is a related parser issue whitequark/parser#323

@mergulhao I've looked into this a bit today. I guess (from the shell prompt) that you're running undercover within docker. Is the system locale set to en_US.UTF8?

export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

@grodowski I didn't have time to look into this again. I'll try your suggestion and feedback to you probably until the end of this week.

[Sylvestre Mergulhão]

@grodowski Your guess was correct... I'm running within docker. Those env vars was not set. After set those vars, it worked.

Thanks for leaving a reply @mergulhao. I'm closing this one

I was having the same issue in docker, in my case just export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 fixed the issue. Thanks anyway

Worked for me @grodowski and @fabn (only needed LC_ALL)- thank you!
