hi all,
i got problem with net/http inside controller. I need to respond to
action using some remote (not REST compatible) http server (actually
returning pdf file) so inside action i use:

      response = Net::HTTP.new('1.2.3.4').request_get('/url')
      send_data http_response.body, :filename => "test.pdf", :type =>
"application/pdf"

...with no luck :( I got:

 Timeout::Error in InvoicesController#pdf

execution expired

RAILS_ROOT: C:/work/z

app/controllers/invoices_controller.rb:48:in `pdf'

on ethereal i trully see that there is no response to GET but what is
interesting the same net/http code inside rake task is successfuly
downloading and saving the file locally.

What could be the problem with net/http requests inside controllers? i
may only guess that in may not be thread safe or what as controllers
use net/http mechanism for own pursposes. how to solve this issue  -
any ideas?

big thanks in advance
