Answer 1

When I upgraded to Spring 4 I needed to update the jackson dependencies as follows:

    
        com.fasterxml.jackson.core
        jackson-core
        2.5.1
    
    
        com.fasterxml.jackson.core
        jackson-databind
        2.5.1
    
    
        com.fasterxml.jackson.core
        jackson-annotations
        2.5.1
