Using are using the wrong media type for the Content-Type. Change the
above to:
def=`curl -d $abc -H "Content-Type: application/xml" http://
gf18...:8080/CML2Gauss/cml3d/gaussinput`
Your implementation using the Jersey client API will send the
following headers:
Accept: text/plain, application/xml
Content-Type: application/xml
