Hi everyone I''m learning Ruby on Rails and wanted to perform oAuth as follows for a third party API. But I get an error as follows: wrong status line: "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN \">" //Code snippet require ''net/https'' require ''uri'' class UsersController < ApplicationController def auth @client_id = params[:client_id] @auth_url = "https://url/oauth/authorize? client_id=#{@client_id}" url = URI.parse(@auth_url ) req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path) res = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) {|http| http.request(req)} @output = res.body render :text => @output.inspect end end Any help to proceed is much appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

BTW, you may want to look into using one of the existing OAuth gems - there aren''t many good reasons to be re-inventing this particular wheel. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
