Net::HTTP#get?

This code fragment used to work for me:

begin
h = Net::HTTP.new(“www.whatever.com”, 80)
resp, data = h.get("/", nil)
rescue => err
puts "Error: #{err}"
exit
end

Now it doesn’t. What am I missing?

Worked for me after adding: require ‘net/http’ (obviously)

Are you behind a firewall ?

For VERSION =~ /1.[789]/, Net::HTTP#get has been changed:

resp = h.get(“/”, nil)
data = resp.body

I guess it makes more sense than:

resp, = h.get(“/”, nil)

but it’s a major-league incompatible change.
