Hi,
I'm using GlassFish Server Open Source Edition 3.1.2.2 (build 5) and
the jersey core jar says it's version 1.11.1

Subject: Re: Jersey, can't set custom status message
What version of GlassFish/Jersey are we talking about?
In general, I'm vaguely aware of a related Jersey bug that we solved several months back, but cannot recall the details anymore. Also, sometimes the I/O container under Jersey or the client connector do not respect the custom HTTP phrase, so it's essential to know your full configuration to be able to resolve the issue.

P.S. Jersey specific questions are more suitable for Jersey user forum - users_at_jersey.java.net ;)
