From: Nathan Taylor Date: 2006-12-30T02:44:10+09:00 Subject: how to properly format data when using TCPSocket.send() It would be greatly appreciated if someone would clue me in to what I am doing wrong here. I am trying to send this data below to httpd(Apache) however I am receiving a http response code of 400 (bad request). Apache is logging "request failed: error reading the headers" in error_log, however if I replace the \r\n with \x0d\x0a and send this through netcat to Apache I get the proper response code I am looking for. http_socket = TCPSocket.new("#{i}", 80); http_socket.send("PUT /puttest.html HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: #{i}\r\nConnection: close\r\nContent-type: text/html\r\nContent-Length: 309\r\nSee Spot Run!See Spot Run!See Spot Run!\r\n\r\n", 0) Thank you, Nathan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
