Hi Jonathan,
The output message suggests you try to get an entity out of the response,
where no entity should be present for 204. You may want to consume
the response with something like follows to avoid the getEntity call
when not neccessary:
ClientResponse response = webResource/*param setting comes
here*/.post(ClientResponse.class);
if (response.getStatus() == 204) {
// no need to call response.getEntity here
} else {
// maybe you want to deal with some more status codes?
}
HTH,
