Spring-mvc 406 NOT Acceptable URl

Question

I saw the relevant questions in stackoverflow but i didn't find a solution to my problem. This is my Initializer Class:

    public class WebInitializer extends AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer {
        public static HashMap<String, String> response_code = new HashMap<String, String>();


        @Override
        protected Class<?>[] getRootConfigClasses() {
            return new Class[] { MainConfiguration.class };
        }

        @Override
        protected Class<?>[] getServletConfigClasses() {
            return null;
        }

        @Override
        protected String[] getServletMappings() {
            return new String[] { "/" };
        }

        @Override
        public void onStartup(ServletContext servletContext) throws ServletException {
            super.onStartup(servletContext);
            Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
            servletContext.addListener(new MainContextListener());
 }
}

This is the Controller:

@RestController 
@Component
public class MainController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/getAll", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = "application/json;charset=UTF-8")
    public Int addNumber (
            @RequestParam(value = "number", defaultValue = "0",
                    required = false) int number ) {
// code to set and return number
}
}

This is the Structure of webapp folder:

main/webapp/index.jsp

Css and Scripts folders are in webapp folder.

and I'm trying to run the project on intellij using tomcat web server. the problem is when I run the project, index.jsp opens in a browser but it gives 406 not acceptable uri error on getAll.

You intercept all URLs (CSS as well)

protected String[] getServletMappings() {
    return new String[] { "/" };
}

You need tyo exclude resources from the intercepting. See e.g. Spring 4.x Java code-based configuration: Static resource files and Dispatcher servlet

I added this code to exclude the resources from being intercepted but nothing changed: "@Bean" public InternalResourceViewResolver viewResolver() { InternalResourceViewResolver resolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver(); resolver.setPrefix("/webapp/"); resolver.setSuffix(".jsp"); return resolver; } " @Override" public void addResourceHandlers(ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) { registry .addResourceHandler("/webapp/**") .addResourceLocations("/webapp/"); } – ShakibaZar Jan 24 '17 at 08:17

This should work

@Override
public void addResourceHandlers(final ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {
    registry.addResourceHandler("/resources/**").addResourceLocations("/resources/");
}

But make sure that you put the static contents under resources folder.

Please note that webapp is not a part of the Java web application folder structure and that's the reason why the code you put in your previous comment is not working

Now after adding ResourceHandlers another problem poped up! it is giving "406 not acceptable" on getAll. @Salvan Arekkattil – ShakibaZar Jan 24 '17 at 09:24
@user5621266 HTTP status 406 is specifically related to your controller method and the request posted. please go through the thread [Spring Controller post] (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14006619/spring-requestparam-arguments-not-being-passed-in-post-method) to understand how to post a request to controller – Salvan Arekkattil Jan 24 '17 at 09:44

after trying lots of ways I discovered I had missed one dependency in my pom file, so response wasn't sent as json and 406 error occured, the missing dependency was jackson:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.3</version>
</dependency>
