[Mechanize-users] Bug: Mechanize 0.6.6 has problems handling 302s
I''m trying to get a link that results in a 302 redirect, and although
Mechanize 0.6.5 handled it fine, I get an EOFError deep inside Net::Protocol
when I try it with 0.6.6. Here''s an example with some URL I found on
Google.
This script:
require ''rubygems''
require ''mechanize''
a = WWW::Mechanize.new
a.get(''http://www.brunway.com/adcentrix/clickthru.cfm?id=25'')
Results in this error:
EOFError: end of file reached
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:133:in `sysread''
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:133:in `rbuf_fill''

Unfortunately, my Ruby Net module understanding is not strong enough to
figure out what''s going on here. Anyone know what''s up?

It looks like the server doesn''t like keep alive requests, and mechanize is not handling it properly. It tries to read from the socket even though there is nothing left to read. I''ve added a fix in SVN, and I''ll release this tonight. -- Aaron Patterson http://tenderlovemaking.com/
