When I do a bundle update I get the following error

Using rack-ssl (1.3.2) 
/Users/anita/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p290/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/remote_fetcher.rb:215:in `fetch_http': bad response Internal Server Error 500 (http://production.cf.rubygems.org/gems/rdoc-3.9.2.gem) (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)

I also get the same error from

gem install rdoc
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
bad response Internal Server Error 500 (http://production.cf.rubygems.org/gems/rdoc-3.9.2.gem)

and from

wget http://production.cf.rubygems.org/gems/rdoc-3.9.2.gem

I can use the same commands (bundle update, gem install and wget) to install or just fetch other gems.

What is likely to be causing this?
thanks for any clues.

    This one was buried in our spam filter, just unearthed it. Sorry.

    Looks like this was a temporary cloudfront/s3 issue. If this is still happening, please let us know!

    Actually, it turned out to be also a problem with our firewall. I could
    install rdoc once I added rubygems as an exception to firewall scanning.

    Thanks,
