IO::write() throws Invalid Argument with HTTP::get()

Ruby
#1

Hi everyone,

I have a <15 line snippet below that fails when downloading a particular
60+MB file. I have tested it with other files >60MB and it works. This
one in particular is gives me trouble everytime. Any help is greatly
appreciated. -Chris

#!/bin/ruby

url = ‘http://blog.vuzit.com/07EarlyYears.pdf’
uri = URI.parse(url)

Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, 80) do |http|
response = http.get(uri.path)
mystr = response.body.to_s

File.open(‘result’, ‘wb’) {|f|
count = f.write mystr
}
end
