The host and port are the wrong way round in the Net::HTTP.new call[1].

So because a string with no numbers in it will return 0 when to_i is called on 
it, you're attempting to open a connection to default host (I assume 
localhost), port 0. Which then causes an underlying library to bubble the 
getaddrinfo error up.
