Add the utf8_sanitizer.rb to your Rails 3.2 project in app/middleware. Instead of removing the invalid request characters and continuing the request (as some gems do) it returns a 400 error.

Add the following line to your config/application.rb:

config.middleware.use 'Utf8Sanitizer'

If you only need it in production add to config/environments/production.rb. This can be without quotes:

config.middleware.use Utf8Sanitizer

# 1. Change boot2docker image type (this will take long)
# 2. Resize image
# 3. Resize partion (using GParted)
