Why is HttpServletRequest inputstream empty?

Question

I have this code where I read the input from a request input stream and use a JacksonMapper to convert into a POJO. Its running in a jetty 7 container with guice support.

Answer 1

I've had this problem with a post. I solved it by FIRST reading the inputstream and putting it in a cache, before reading the parameters. That seemed to do the trick
