UTF-8 trouble in rails app when passing to production

Question

I just passed my application in his production environment :

debian
nginx
unicorn
mysql

In development I use :

mac osx 10.7.3
webrick
sqlite

I got an error when I go to a view with some UTF-8 chars :

ActionView::Template::Error (incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT):
    1: render renderer_for(:new)
  app/admin/projects.rb:122:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'

I have added this at the top of my file :

# encoding: utf-8

It make it work in my development environment but not in my production envirnoment, any idea ?

EDIT

The error come from here :

f.has_many :roles do |app_f|
  app_f.inputs do
    # if object has id we can destroy it
    if app_f.object.id
      app_f.input :_destroy, :as => :boolean, :label => "Supprimer l'utilisateur du projet"
    end
    app_f.input :user,      :include_blank => false, :label_method => :to_label
    app_f.input :role_name, :include_blank => false 
    #app_f.input :role_level, :label => 'Author type',  :as => :select, :include_blank => false, :collection => Role::role_list
  end
end

It doesn't change anything if I change the current locale.

EDIT

I'm using ruby 1.9.3 and rails 3.1.0 I have no view to show because I'm using the ActiveAdmin DSL

You didn't tell which Ruby verison you use. And you have to show the view code.

Encoding management is hard, and Ruby/Rails is no exception.

There are some great articles by Yehuda Katz and JEG2 about encoding and how Rails does it.

There is no view code, i'm using ActiveAdmin and is internal DSL for my views. I solved my problem by change mysql to mysql2 in my gemfile – Awea Mar 02 '12 at 09:36
OK that makes sense since "mysql" is unable to hold encoding metadata, but mysql2 is. I remeber having read something about this kind of issue elsewhere. – jlecour Mar 02 '12 at 15:25
