I have written a simple rest based controller using @responseBody which I expect to return a JSON.
Somehow I am not able to get it work as expected.
when I run the url "http://localhost:8080/my-webapp/amazon/rips" ..it throws back below error
HTTP Status 406 -JBWEB000126: The resource identified by this request is only capable of generating responses with characteristics not acceptable according to the request 'Accept' headers. can someone please lend a helping hand.
Mycontroller is below:
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/amazon")
public class JsonController {
@RequestMapping(value="/{name}", method = RequestMethod.GET,produces = "application/json")
public @ResponseBody
Book getShopInJSON(@PathVariable String name) {
Book book = new Book();
book.setName(name);
book.setAvailablity(false);
return book;
}
Book class is below:
public class Book {
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public boolean isAvailablity() {
return availablity;
}
public void setAvailablity(boolean availablity) {
this.availablity = availablity;
}
private String name ;
private boolean availablity;
}

application/json. Thus, you get the 406. This is not a problem with the server-side code, but rather your client code.
