Sven Casimir commented on THRIFT-1224: -------------------------------------- I get the same error when trying to insert umlauts. The error occurs at thrift (0.8.0) lib/thrift/transport/framed_transport.rb:84:in `write' thrift (0.8.0) lib/thrift/protocol/binary_protocol.rb:112:in `write_string' thrift (0.8.0) lib/thrift/client.rb:35:in `write' thrift (0.8.0) lib/thrift/client.rb:35:in `send_message' Will this issue ever be fixed? Or do you have any suggestions on what to do about it? > Cannot insert UTF-8 text > ------------------------ > > Key: THRIFT-1224 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1224 > Project: Thrift > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Ruby - Library > Affects Versions: 0.6 > Environment: Ruby 1.9.2, Cassandra 0.8, thrift_client gem 0.6.2, > cassandra gem 0.11.1 > Reporter: Alessandro Morandi > Labels: charset, encoding, ruby, utf, utf-8, utf8 > Fix For: 0.9 > > > I can't seem to find a way to save UTF-8 data into Cassandra. > I'm using the cassandra gem 0.11.1 (https://github.com/fauna/cassandra/) > which in turn uses thrift_client (0.6.2), which in turns uses the thrift > library (0.6.0). > As an example, the following code[1] > bq. cassandra.insert(:Cache, "123", {"unicode string" => "รค"}) > will raise an exception: > bq. {{Encoding::CompatibilityError: incompatible character encodings: > ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8}} > The stacktrace points to > `thrift-0.6.0/lib/thrift/transport/framed_transport.rb:58`. What seems to be > happening is that `@wbuf` is encoded as ASCII-8BIT, while `buf` is encoded as > UTF-8, which causes the concatenation operation (<<) to fail with the > exception above. > This issue might be connected to > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1023. > [1] Of course, this assumes a "cassandra" object created using the cassandra > gem and a schema inizialized with a column family called "Cache" -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
