Binary Post #2

binary_post_2.rb

require 'sinatra' # version: 1.4.0 and rack version: 1.4.1

post '/post' do
    request.body.each {|x| puts x.encoding} # each because the request is wrapped inside an object
                                            # that responds to each
end

__END__

`curl --data "Hello" http://localhost:9393/post` outputs "ASCII-8BIT"
`curl --data-binary "Hello" http://localhost:9393/post` outputs "ASCII-8BIT" #No reason why I used that --data-binary handle


`curl --data-binary @"two.txt" http://localhost:9393/post` works fine

However, 

`curl --data-binary @"three.mp3" http://localhost:9393/post` fails with an ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 and a stacktrace

`curl --data-binary @"one.jpg" http://localhost:9393/post` fails with an ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 and a stacktrace




require 'sinatra' # version 1.3.2 rack 1.4.1

the same code above with both `ruby app.rb` and `shotgun app.rb` throws same error "invalid byte sequence in UTF-8"

with locale settings (since using a commandline so that external encoding is specified) as LC_CTYPE=C

`curl --data-binary @"three.mp3" http://localhost:9393/post` fails
`curl --data-binary @"one.jpg" http://localhost:9393/post` fails

with locale settings as LC_CTYPE="UTF-8"


`curl --data-binary @"three.mp3" http://localhost:9393/post` gives the same error
`curl --data-binary @"one.jpg" http://localhost:9393/post` gives the same error
