Our client uses IE8, and its caching-hungry ways makes things difficult. To fix this I added a bean to prevent caching
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.annotation.AnnotationMethodHandlerAdapter">
<property name="cacheSeconds" value="0" />
</bean>
According to Chrome's (Very useful) developer tool, I can see that Response Headers are:
Cache-Control:no-cache
Cache-Control:no-store
Content-Length:1070
Content-Type:text/html;charset=utf-8
Date:Tue, 27 Nov 2012 17:21:31 GMT
Expires:Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT
Pragma:no-cache
However, now I'm getting a 406
response. Why would I be getting this?
The Request Headers are:
Accept:application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01
Accept-Charset:ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.3
Accept-Encoding:gzip,deflate,sdch
Accept-Language:en-US,en;q=0.8

I took a look at this answer, but I'm already using Jackson.
