title: Rails 3: Why am I getting EOFError with DELETE request and no form body?
body: <p>I created the following route in Rails 3:</p>
  
  <pre><code>delete '/api/v1/foo/groups/:group_id', to: 'Manager#delete_group', constraints: { group_id: /\d+/ }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am using Postman to send a DELETE request to that route without a form body.
  Why am I getting the following error?</p>
  
  <pre><code>EOFError in ManagerController#delete_group
  bad content body
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I add dummy values to the form body then I don't get an error.</p>
