I am getting this error on my Heroku deployment:

Errno::EAFNOSUPPORT: Address family not supported by protocol - 
socket2 
        usrruby19.2libruby1.9.1nethttprb:644:in initialize 
        usrruby19.2libruby1.9.1nethttprb:644:in open 
        usrruby19.2libruby1.9.1nethttprb:644:in block in connect 
        usrruby19.2libruby1.9.1timeoutrb:44:in timeout

When I make a certain call Twitter like so: 

Twitter.profile_image('screen name', :size => 'mini')

This code works locally as per the gem's documentation and I've not been able to Google anything about it.

My local setup is as follows: 

ruby 1.8.7 (2011-02-18 patchlevel 334) [i686-darwin10.6.0], MBARI 
0x6770, Ruby Enterprise Edition 2011.03

And I am using the bamboo-mri-1.9.2 stack on Heroku.

  • why are you using 1.8.7 locally and 1.9.2 on heroku? have you tried changing your heroku stack to 1.8.7? – Will Ayd Apr 05 '11 at 11:36
  • @Will I changed my Heroku stack to 1.8.7 as you said but no dice. However, I did disable the use of Apigee, which worked. So I believe that the Twitter gem may not fully support Apigee. Thanks anyway! – Jaryl Apr 05 '11 at 18:39

Address family not supported by protocol - socket(2) (Errno::EAFNOSUPPORT) this error has no other better solution than time.In realit the socket is already in a running state so unless and unrtil it gets free there is no solution to it.Then also you can try by restarting your machine.
