I've no idea on the ins and outs of your error, but I've used the
Proxy class like so in the past:

proxy_class = Net::HTTP::Proxy(PROXY_ADDRESS, PROXY_PORT)

response = proxy_class.start(uri.host, uri.port) {|http|
  http.get(uri.path, headers)
}

...may or may not be good practice but it's worked for me.
