Error on attempting to use Splunk SDK for Ruby

[ashishnarmen]

I am getting the following error on trying to create a one shot search using the SPLUNK SDK for Ruby

NoMethodError in MyControllerController#my_method
undefined method hostname' for #<URI::HTTPS:0x007fb38d0179d8>
Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
splunk-sdk-ruby (0.1.0) lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/context.rb:398:inrequest_by_url'
splunk-sdk-ruby (0.1.0) lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/context.rb:318:in request'
splunk-sdk-ruby (0.1.0) lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/context.rb:201:inlogin'
splunk-sdk-ruby (0.1.0) lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/service.rb:78:in `connect'

The following is the code that I am using

 config = {
          :scheme => :https,
          :host => "servername",
          :port => 8089,
          :username => "username",
          :password => "password"
      }
service = Splunk::Service.new(config).login()

Has someone run into something similar. Could this be occurring because, I am hosting my application on http and attempting to connect to https.

You need to upgrade to ruby 1.9.3 since the host method is not available in ruby versions before that. Also, I had to use the :protocol parameter instead of the :scheme for it to work. Hope it helps! Good Luck!

Thanks, let me try that out.
