getting internal server error using rest-client in ruby to post to HTTP POST
- by Angela
Hi, this is my code and I don't know how to debug it because I just get an "internal server error":
I am trying to HTTP POST to an external ASPX:
def upload
uri = 'https://api.postalmethods.com/2009-02-26/PostalWS.asmx' #postalmethods URI
#https://api.postalmethods.com/2009-02-26/PostalWS.asmx?op=UploadFile
#http://www.postalmethods.com/method/2009-02-26/UploadFile
@postalcard = Postalcard.find(:last)
#Username=string&Password=string&MyFileName=string&FileBinaryData=string&FileBinaryData=string&Permissions=string&Description=string&Overwrite=string
filename = @postalcard.postalimage.original_filename
filebinarydata = File.open("#{@postalcard.postalimage.path}",'rb')
body = "Username=me&Password=sekret&MyFileName=#{filename}&FileBinaryData=#{filebinarydata}"
@response = RestClient.post(uri,
body, #body as string
{"Content-Type" => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
"Content-Length" => @postalcard.postalimage.size} # end headers
) #close arguments to Restclient.post
end
