Hi all I know this is an common error you will get while returning JSON response from controller using @ResponseBody annotation.
I googled and tried to implete all the solutions given in all the following links but failed to solve this error so finally decided to post the question.
Solutions that I tried out
previously I was using /jobsearch.htm request in my AJAX call url but as per mentioned in this answer
I have removed the *.htm and after that I am getting 404 request not mapped error.
I tried to set MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter but getting error
Build path is incompelete can not find class file com/fastxml/jackson/core/JsonProcessingException
accoring to this blog I have added content negotiation manager but still not able to solve this error.
Still I can not able to solve this error followng is my code
