' The problem is with the critical() method, the method returns the "dummy response" if there already was a pending error. The fix is to replace the line of: return '200 dummy reply code' if @error_occured to return Response.parse('200 dummy reply code') if @error_occured Alternatively, one can have a "canned" dummy response instance, but that may be unnecessary considering this only happens in error path. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
