What is the Content-Type that the Apache HTTP client sends for the
POST request?

public Response Test(@FormParam("part1") String p1,
@FormParam("part2") String p1)
Or you can use JavaMail if you need to get access to the actual
multipart message and/or you are dealing with "multipart/related" or
"multipart/mixed". For example:
@Consumes(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA)
public Response Test(javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart multiPart)
Or:
@Consumes(""multipart/*")
public Response Test(javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart multiPart)

No, since you are using MIME multipart on the client side the Content-
Type of the request should should be "multipart/form-data". Since you
are getting a 415 response back from the server i am guessing the
client is not setting the Content-Type to "multipart/form-data".

I presume for the latter case it is when the @Consumes something other
than @Consumes(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA).
