This is the code I am using to get the xml data from Apple's UK Top 10 rss feed:
xml = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse('http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStoreServices.woa/ws/RSS/topsongs/limit=10/xml')).body
Sinatra returns Errno::ECONNRESET at / - Connection reset by peer.
The RSS url I used for this was generated from the Apple RSS generator here. The error occurs with other countries' rss feeds but does NOT occur with the default feed (US) found here. The backtrace is below:
