Rails - Jan 2010 - Net::http breaks post request, Curb (curl) does not

Hi,

I''m having a problem with a simple post request. The issue is that the
receiving side fails to process the message because apparently the body
of the post message is not sent in a single packet together with the
headers. The body contains only xml.

I''m running webrick. The thing is that if I use NET::HTTP the problem
occurs

h = Net::HTTP::new(''192.168.xx.xx'', 65654)
headers = { ''Content-Type'' =>
''application/xml'' }
@resp = h.request_post(url, ops, headers)


BUT if I use Curl (via the Curb gem) then there is no problem.
Everything is sent in one packet and the other side reads the contents
properly.

------------

Is there a way to tell net::http to send the request at once??
I''d like to use that.

I''ll now go through the pain of installing Curb/curl on windows where
the app runs. So if someone has any hints to get net::http working...

Cheers

I don''t know of such an option, I do however know that any server that
has such a requirement is rather odd and non standards compliant (and
what are you going to do when you need to send more than one packet of
data or if a user (for whatever random reason) has a connection with a
lower packet size than you currently do ?).

Thanks Fred,

Yes you are right the server that is processing the request is not 
really the best. It is for a demo and apparently it behaves that way.

I''m trying to get Curb gem on the windows machine, let see how it goes.
Using google for that already.

Cheers
