java.net.ProtocolException: Unexpected status line: HTTP/1.1 422��Unprocessable Entity

I'm making a POST request using Retrofit + Okhttp, and I'm running into the following error:

02-05 04:45:13.981  15972-16249/com.myapp.android D/Retrofit﹕ ---> HTTP POST http://10.0.0.4:3000/api/v1/users/1/posts

Using the following libs:

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:1.9.0'
compile 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp-urlconnection:2.2.0'
compile 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp:2.2.0'

I'm expecting something like the following to come back (intentionally testing a 422 error):

{
    "title": [
        "is too short (minimum is 6 characters)"
    ]
}

I get the expected result when sending via Postman (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/postman-rest-client/fdmmgilgnpjigdojojpjoooidkmcomcm?hl=en)

Edit: I'm making the following call in Rails to return this 422 result:

render json: @post.errors.to_json, status: :unprocessable_entity

Another Edit:

Here's a screenshot of the request being made via Wireshark. Nothing looks out of the ordinary, but I've also never used the tool before.

Overall

Here's the appropriate hex.

Your server appears to violate the HTTP spec. The status line is defined as follows:

The first line of a response message is the status-line, consisting of the protocol version, a space (SP), the status code, another space, a possibly empty textual phrase describing the status code, and ending with CRLF.

status-line = HTTP-version SP status-code SP reason-phrase CRLF

From the exception it appears that a non-space character (or two) is between the status code and reason phrase.

OkHttp is looking for ASCII spaces (character #32) between these elements. You can use something like WireShark or maybe Charles to intercept the network traffic and figure out what characters are being used by your HTTP server.
