POST JSON fails with 415 Unsupported media type, Spring 3 mvc

Question

I am trying to send a POST request to a servlet. Request is sent via jQuery in this way:

var productCategory = new Object();
productCategory.idProductCategor         


        

Answer 1

I faced this issue when I integrated spring boot with spring mvc. I solved it by just adding these dependencies.

org.codehaus.jackson
jackson-mapper-asl
1.9.13


com.fasterxml.jackson.core
jackson-databind
2.5.3
