Simple Post to CookBook

Rails
1

I am trying to post from C# to a simple Ruby on Rails page.
I am using the cookbook of Ruby on rails. So I just want to create a new
category from C#
I do it like this in c#

string url = “http://localhost:3000/categories.xml”;
oPostData = ASCIIEncoding.UTF8.GetBytes(“category=TestCat”);
ie.Navigate2(ref oURL, ref oEmpty, ref oEmpty, ref oPostData, ref
oHeader);

I get this

NoMethodError in CategoriesController#create
undefined method `stringify_keys!’ for “TestCat”:String
RAILS_ROOT: C:/InstantRails/rails_apps/cookbook

C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.0.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:2111:in
attributes=' C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.0.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1926:in initialize’
app/controllers/categories_controller.rb:43:in new' app/controllers/categories_controller.rb:43:in create’

Request
Parameters:

{“format”=>“xml”,
“category”=>“TestCat”}

Show session dump

:csrf_id: 5dc6b3aa43b099703c798ea053ad9ebb
flash: !map:ActionController::Flash::FlashHash {}

Response
Headers:
{“cookie”=>[],
“Cache-Control”=>“no-cache”}

I think I am not supposed to pass the parameter that way. Can anybody
show me where and how I am supposed to post on this. Any help will be
appreciated .
Thanks in advance

I woudl suggest first you need to determine whether the problem is in
the C#
code or in the server.
Have you looked in the rails log to see if the request being received by
the
server is as you expect?
If so does that url work if you enter it from a browser?
