Hi all,

the code below explains the problem in detail

#this returns error Net::HTTPBadResponse
      url = URI.parse('https://sitename.com')
      response = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) {|http|
        http.get('/remote/register_device')
      }

#this works
      url = URI.parse('http://sitename.com')
      response = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) {|http|
        http.get('/remote/register_device')
      }

#this returns error Net::HTTPBadResponse
      response = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('https://sitename.com/remote/register_device'), {:text => 'hello world'})

#this returns error Errno::ECONNRESET (Connection reset by peer)
      response = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt'), {:text => 'hello world'})

#this works
      response = Net::HTTP.post_form(URI.parse('http://sitename.com/remote/register_device'), {:text => 'hello world'})

So... how do I send POST parameters to https://sitename.com or https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt in this example?

Further information, I am trying to get this working in Rails: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StoreKitGuide/VerifyingStoreReceipts/VerifyingStoreReceipts.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008267-CH104-SW1
