Rails - May 2012 - Connect reset by peer error

Hi all

I''m getting a ''Connection reset by peer'' while
getting an access token during oAuth from a third party API. Here''s the
code snippet:

def accesstoken
  @code = params[:code]
  	 
   url = URI.parse(''access token request url'')
   req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url.path)
   req.set_form_data({''auth_code'' => @code,
''client_id''=>''my_client_id'',
''client_secret''=>''my_secret_key''},
'';'')
   res = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port).start { |http| http.request(req) }
   case res
   when Net::HTTPSuccess, Net::HTTPRedirection
      # OK
    else
     # res.error!
    end

    render :text => @code.inspect

end	

I get a valid authorization code but unable to proceed to get access token due
to above error. The third party API has to return a response in json format.
Any help is much awaited and appreciated!

Is there some particular reason you''re using the semicolon separator
here?
Unless you''ve got a very weird server on the other end, the default 
separator for set_form_data (&) is almost certainly the correct thing to 
use.

Also note that, given that you''re sending client_secret, you should be 
using SSL for this connection as well - see my reply to your earlier post.
