RE: [Jersey] POST is not working when body is provided

This would explain the behaviour. But it is weird, as HttpUrlConnection's
description doesn't tell anything about any special cases. Anyways, in our
case it is working correctly, so I give up thinking about it.

 

Thanks

Paul,

 

thanks for the tip with the logging, I will try it out tomorrow. :-)

 

No, there are really no other changes but only replaced @PUT by @POST.

 

The client is a simple HttpUrlConnection.

 

 

I suspect that HttpUrlConnection may be working differently for PUT/POST
requests.

 

Paul.

 





I will check the log, thanks! :-)

 

Regards

Markus

Hi Markus,

 

There is nothing specific in Jersey that differentiates between POST and PUT
apart from the mapping to a method that is annotated with @POST or @PUT.

 

What client are you using? did you make modifications to that other than
changing PUT to POST?

 

Can you add logging and see what the client sends?

I can do a PUT to my JAX-RS resource, but I want to use a POST. So I just
replaced @PUT by @POST and kept the rest of the code. Now it does not work
anymore: If the body is empty, everything works well. But if a body is
provided (which shall get attached as a child to the existing resource,
hence the POST instead of the PUT), then it says that it "415 Unsupported
Media Type".

 

This is really weird, since PUT works really well, and the media type is
"application/xml" and the body is a InputStream...!

 

Can anybody tell me what to do...?

 

Thanks!
