In Ruby/Rails, if you’re running into the following error:
Net::HTTPBadResponse: wrong status line
When attempting to post data to a secure (https) url, with something similar to:
Net::HTTP::post_form("https://www.example.com",{})
Then you can rewrite your request to avoid the exception like this:
url = URI.parse("https://www.example.com")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host,url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path,{})
request = http.request(request)
After which, you can access the request response in the same way as always.
