Accepting json object not working

Jack_Tauson_Sr

I am following an online example to test a POST request by passing a JSON object using Postman client as shown below. :

HelloWorldApplication.java

    package com.thejavageek.jaxrs;       import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;    import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;       @ApplicationPath("/rest")    public class ExampleApplication extends Application {       }

HelloWorldService.java

    package com.thejavageek.jaxrs;       import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;    import javax.ws.rs.POST;    import javax.ws.rs.Path;    import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;       import com.thejavageek.jaxrs.model.Person;       @Path("/HelloWorld")    public class HelloWorldService {       @POST    @Path("/writePersonToDB")    @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)    public void writePersonToDB(Person person) {       System.out.println(person);       }       }

Person.java

    package com.thejavageek.jaxrs.model;       public class Person {       private String name;    private String surname;    private String address;       public String getName() {    return name;    }       public void setName(String name) {    this.name = name;    }       public String getSurname() {    return surname;    }       public void setSurname(String surname) {    this.surname = surname;    }       public String getAddress() {    return address;    }       public void setAddress(String address) {    this.address = address;    }       @Override    public String toString() {    return "Person [name=" + name + ", surname=" + surname + ", address=" + address + "]";    }       }

Error in Postman :

I have tested another HelloWorld example of GET request from here and it worked fine. So there isn't any eclipse related issue on my local host/browser.

You failed to mention what the project name was that you deployed your application as. From your postman screenshot, one would assume that it was JAX-RS_PostExamples, but you should double check what it really is as it needs to match what you put into postman.

And that is NOT the project name in the example at the link posted.

That project name was JAX-RS_examples

You clearly did NOT follow that example exactly because it says to do this:

Deploy the web app in jboss server and open chrome rest client. and send request as below. URL: http://localhost:8080/JAX-RS_examples/rest/HelloWorld/writePersonToDB

That is NOT the project name in your code.

Did you 'Deploy the web app in jboss server'?

Did you 'open chrome rest client'?

Assuming the example at the link actually works the error you got indicates there is no such project/jar/file/code at the location where the server is looking.

Not a Java issue - a deployment issue.
