Subject: [ruby-core:42850] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6001] Retry idempotent HTTP requests for more errors


Issue #6001 has been updated by Eric Hodel.


I think Timeout::Error is OK since Errno::ECONNRESET or Errno::ECONNABORTED may race with your timeout setting depending upon network behavior.

OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError may be raised due to a temporary issue when reading or writing and it is not possible to distinguish between temporary and permanent SSLErrors, so I think retrying is OK.

I agree that EINVAL should be removed.

Bug #6001: Retry idempotent HTTP requests for more errors

Author: Eric Hodel
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: lib
Target version: 2.0.0
ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0dev (2012-02-11 trunk 34547) [x86_64-darwin11.2.0]


The net-http-persistent gem implements #5790 / #5813 but for more error types:

https://github.com/drbrain/net-http-persistent/blob/1b5f84d020/lib/net/http/persistent.rb#L811-813

These additional error types should be rescued by net/http and retried.
