Hi,the error seems to occur on the server, what kind of request are you sending? What mediaType is the server expecting?regards,/Oleeviware.com

Answer

I was sending a XML request, the server is expecting a XML request as well. The response i have pasted above was when media type was application/XML. When I changed the media type to text/XML i am getting the response below. I am doing a POST&nbsp;  &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;meta content="HTML Tidy, see &lt;!-- w --&gt;&lt;a class=" postlink="" /&gt;www.w3.org" name="generator"/&gt;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; JBossWeb/2.0.0.GA_CP - Error report&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;!--H1 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:22px;} H2 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:16px;} H3 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:14px;} BODY {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} B {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} P {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size:12px;}A {color : black;}A.name {color : black;}HR {color : #525D76;}--&amp;amp;amp;gt;&nbsp;  &nbsp;  &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; HTTP Status 415 - Cannot consume content type&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  type&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  Status report&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  message&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  Cannot consume content type&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  description&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  The server refused this request because the request entity is in a format not supported by the requested resource for the requested method (Cannot consume content type).&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; JBossWeb/2.0.0.GA_CP&nbsp;
