failsafe_response 200 OK
Reported by ronin-24025 (at lighthouseapp) | December 19th, 2008 @ 07:18 AM | in 2.x
I've been invoking internal server errors to test Rails status code handling by sending in some malformed JSON.
For an internal server error, however, failsafe_response returns Status: 200 OK with the following in the response body:
Status: 500 Internal Server Error
Content-Type: text/html
<html><body><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></body></html>
As an aside, I think Rail's error handling schizophrenia between production and development needs to be simplified. Just send the right status header and put just the status text in the response body (to help clients who can't get at the Status header). The developer can get his exception report in the server logs.

def failsafe_response(exception) log_failsafe_exception(exception) [500, {'Content-Type' => 'text/html'}, failsafe_response_body] rescue Exception => failsafe_error # Logger or IO errors $stderr.puts "Error during failsafe response: #{failsafe_error}" endLooks like a 500 status code to me. Are you on edge?

This bug exists in versions of Rails up to 2.2.2, but not in the 2.3 code.
Will there be a 2.2.3? Is there somewhere to submit a patch?
