RestClient::MethodNotAllowed: 405 Method Not Allowed GET response

I am performing a GET request in Ruby and not sure why I am sometimes getting the following stack trace.

RestClient::MethodNotAllowed: 405 Method Not Allowed
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/abstract_response.rb:48:in return!
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/request.rb:269:in process_result
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/request.rb:212:in block in transmit
/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/net/http.rb:852:in start
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/request.rb:206:in transmit
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/request.rb:68:in execute
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient/request.rb:35:in execute
[GEM_ROOT]/gems/rest-client-1.6.8/lib/restclient.rb:70:in get

It's especially confusing because the stack trace does not say which method is not allowed. What might be the cause of this error?

You could try to rescue the exception. This way you can access the http_body of the response. If you're lucky, this might give you an insight on what went wrong.

begin
  RestClient.get 'http://example.com/resource', {:params => {:id => 50, 'foo' => 'bar'}}
rescue RestClient::Exception => e
  puts e.http_body
end
