Rails HTTParty same 404 response in 2 different APIs - ruby-on-rails

My Rails app just started to return 404 errors last Thursday on our Staging server, and I'm trying to figure out why. We hit 2 completely different APIs in our app, and they have been working for months. All of a sudden, we got 404 errors all morning, and without any changes, they work again.
We are using HTTParty to hit these external APIs. The response for both APIs are exactly the same, and it is a generic html template for 404 errors:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<title>404 - File or directory not found.</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body{margin:0;font-size:.7em;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;background:#EEEEEE;}
fieldset{padding:0 15px 10px 15px;}
h1{font-size:2.4em;margin:0;color:#FFF;}
h2{font-size:1.7em;margin:0;color:#CC0000;}
h3{font-size:1.2em;margin:10px 0 0 0;color:#000000;}
#header{width:96%;margin:0 0 0 0;padding:6px 2% 6px 2%;font-family:"trebuchet MS", Verdana, sans-serif;color:#FFF;
background-color:#555555;}
#content{margin:0 0 0 2%;position:relative;}
.content-container{background:#FFF;width:96%;margin-top:8px;padding:10px;position:relative;}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header"><h1>Server Error</h1></div>
<div id="content">
<div class="content-container"><fieldset>
<h2>404 - File or directory not found.</h2>
<h3>The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.</h3>
</fieldset></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
My initial guess is that we somehow hit the wrong endpoint for both, which is unlikely because we never changed anything and they have been working for months. But I tried to hit the wrong endpoint in one of the external API anyway, and this is the response I got:
<html>
<head><title>404 Not Found</title></head>
<body bgcolor=\"white\">
<center><h1>404 Not Found</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>
</body>
</html>
I noticed right away that these two 404 html templates are different, and at this point, I'm not sure what really happened. Since we got the same exact 404 response for both APIs, my hunch is that something is wrong on our side, not theirs, but I'm not 100% sure. I would really appreciate any help! Thanks!

Facing intermittent 404 issue when calling Rails API

I have banged my head on this for 2 days now and i dint find any luck yet. Looking for help on this.
The issue:
Front End makes 10 similar XHR requests ( for different users ) to my Rails API and few of the requests randomly fails with 404 status code.
My Observations:
If i make the same request again, It passes.
I dont see any trace of 404 requests even hitting my server ( using logs ).
I do see different response headers for 200 and 404 ( mentioned below ) and i see cowboy ( https://github.com/heroku/cowboyku, https://github.com/heroku/vegur) server for 404 requests. I run my rails production with thin web server.
My theory is that, As few of my requests are not able to hit my thin server, they are getting 404. Now, the confusion is, Why is it hitting cowboy
200 Status Code
404 Status Code
[EDITS]
response payload for 404 errors is something like below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Calling premailer manually isn't inlining styles

I'm working with Sendgrid's template system and need to manually inline some css for content that will be included in the Sendgrid smtpapi call.
Premailer doesn't seem to be actually inlining the css styles. I can inspect the result of calling Premailer.new but the processed_doc and doc both do not have the styles inlined.
Different methods I've tried:
Including the css file directly:
header = <<-HTML
<div class="preview-content">
#{data["content"]}
</div>
HTML
p header
=> "<div class=\"preview-content\">\n<p>Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. </p>\n</div>\n"
premailer = Premailer.new(header, with_html_string: true, adapter: :nokogiri,css: [Rails.root.join('app', 'assets', 'stylesheets', 'email_base.css').to_s], input_encoding: "UTF-8", verbose: true)
p premailer.processed_doc.to_html
=> "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd\">\n<html><body>\n<div class=\"preview-content\">\n<p>Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean.</p>\n</div>\n</body></html>\n"
premailer.doc.to_html returns the same thing with no inlined css.
I checked that the css file is accessible and that the styles apply to .preview-content p.
Adding a header to the document
header = <<-HTML
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"> <!-- utf-8 works for most cases -->
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"> <!-- Forcing initial-scale shouldn't be necessary -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <!-- Use the latest (edge) version of IE rendering engine -->
<title></title> <!-- The title tag shows in email notifications, like Android 4.4. -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/asset/email_base.css" media="all">
</head>
<body width="100%" height="100%" bgcolor="#ffffff" style="margin: 0; padding: 0 20px;">
<div class="preview-content">
#{data["content"]}
</div>
</body>
</html>
HTML
p header
=> '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">\n <html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">\n <head>\n <meta charset=\"utf-8\"> <!-- utf-8 works for most cases -->\n <meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width\"> <!-- Forcing initial-scale shouldn't be necessary -->\n <meta http-equiv=\"X-UA-Compatible\" content=\"IE=edge\"> <!-- Use the latest (edge) version of IE rendering engine -->\n <title></title> <!-- The title tag shows in email notifications, like Android 4.4. -->\n <link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"/asset/email_base.css\" media=\"all\">\n </head>\n <body width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" style=\"margin: 0; padding: 0 20px;\">\n <div class=\"preview-content\">\n<p>Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean.</p></div>\n </body>\n </html>\n'
The desired css to be inline:
.the-excerpt,
.the-excerpt p,
.preview-content p
// +responsive-text(18px, 30px)
line-height: 1.8 !important
font-size: 18px
Is there something I'm missing to inline css manually? Both ways don't seem to yield any different results.
I'm trying out Premailer right now, and having some problems of my own.. but the way that i see Premailer actually processing the content and getting something different back (it removes the classes with the proper configuration setting, at least) is using this method:
premailer = Premailer.new(html, { :with_html_string=>true, :verbose=>true, :remove_classes=>true })
return premailer.to_inline_css

Please can anybody help me point to the mistake in the https request.

Thank you DalmTo. I tried that but that did not solve the problem. Then after carefully looking at each and every part of the request I saw that my socket library was sending the HTTP method as "GET" even though I was giving a body. Once I forced it to "POST" it worked!

Can't link HTML to CSS on my system

Help. Am learning HTML5/CSS. Things are going spiffy until I cannot debug my HTML/CSS markup.
Am using WeBuilder which auto-completes and has links to standard tools like Tidy and others.
Here is what I’ve tried
used an internal CSS link in my HTML: it works;
put the styles.css in same and in a css folder- BUMMER
have relocated both files to another HDD- BUMMER
both files validate with my available tools
I am sure the problem is in the HTML file and have fiddled with every modification I can find suggestions about. I have rewritten the HTML again using WeBuilder’s auto complete but have not done it in Notepad. I understand the basics of HTML and CSS plus am very familiar with files and folders so have directed the href correctly (even so have tried several ideas from W3C.
NOTE: I see in the "publish" here, it picks up the Arial font where mine has times. If Arial is not your default, I'm at a loss because the color doesn't show. Neither shows the color. If I can be of further help please advise. I really thank you for any help.
Here is my HTML markup:
<!DOCTYPE html5>
<html>
<head>
<title>A Simple Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/htm; charset=utf-8">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<style type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" />
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>First Title</h1>
<p>A paragraph of interesting content</p>
<h2>Second Title</h2>
<p>A paragraph of interesting content</p>
<h2>Third Title</h2>
<p>A paragraph of interesting content</p>
</body>
</html>
Here is the CSS:
h1, h2 {
color: #3366CC;
font-family: "Arial", sans-serif;
}
This makes no sense:
<style type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" />
</style>
It should simply be:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" type="text/css" />
The <style> tags are only used for inline CSS in a page. So if you wanted to you could do this:
<style type="text/css">
h1, h2 {
color: #3366CC;
font-family: "Arial", sans-serif;
}
</style>
But it is really better to keep CSS in a separate file.
Also, there is a minor issue with your DOCTYPE at the top of your HTML file. An HTML5 DOCTYPE is simply:
<!DOCTYPE html>
And not:
<!DOCTYPE html5>
The purpose of HTML5 is to—among other things—simplify document formatting & readability. So there is no such thing as <!DOCTYPE html5> it is simply <!DOCTYPE html>.

JavaFX Webview letter-spacing Bug?

Currently I am using the JavaFx Webview to load a HTML page. But there is a problem when it loads the HTML page. It doesn't read the letter-spacing or -webkit-letter-spacing attribute in CSS. It's fine with the Chrome browser. How can I make it work in JavaFx?
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
<title>test</title>
<style>
.text {
letter-spacing: 20px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="text">
abcdefg
</div>
</body>
</html>
Looks like this property is not supported in JavaFX/JDK 7, but works for me in JavaFX/JDK 8. As far as I know, some of the WebViews rendering bugs fixed in JDK 8 won't be backported to JDK 7 and this one seems like being one of such bugs.
