I am trying to upload a file and i am getting the following error:

"\xFF" from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8

I am pretty much following the rails guides in what they are doing. Here is the code I am using.

file = params[:uploaded_file]

File.open(Rails.root.join('public', 'images', file.original_filename), 'w') do |f|
  f.write(file.read)
end

I don't get why it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

Update -- Here is the application Trace
