Hi,

Anyone knows how to setup a web application that needs to store
spanish accents (such as á, é, or í) in the ActiveRecord models.

When I use the Heroku  Console and I try to insert a string with
Spanish characters in the model, I always get the following error:

"ActiveRecord :: StatementInvalid: PGError: invalid byte of sequence
for encoding "UTF8" : 0x82".

For example, let's suppose that I want to store the title of a book in
the model called "book".  From the Heroku Console, I type the
following:

> b = Book.new

> b.title = "Configuración"  ( # title is the field for the title of a book. 
> Note that the title has a spanish accent)

>  b.save

>> I GET THE ERROR!  "ActiveRecord :: StatementInvalid: PGError: invalid byte 
>> of sequence for encoding "UTF8" : 0x82".

I would really appreciate any hint to solve this problem.

Many many thanks,

Sergio
