Jersey Exception : SEVERE: A message body reader for Java class

Question

I have a Jersey based Rest WS which outputs JSON. I am implementing a Jersey Client to invoke the WS and consume the JSON response. The client code I have is below

Answer 1

Try adding:

    com.owlike
    genson
    1.4

Also this problem may occur if you're using HTTP GET with message body so in this case adding jersey-json lib, @XmlRootElement or modifying web.xml won't help. You should use URL QueryParam or HTTP POST.
