Solution 1

(For those who find the question, working with quarkus)

Using this setup routine:

mvn io.quarkus:quarkus-maven-plugin:0.16.1:create     -DprojectGroupId=com.sample     -DprojectArtifactId=hello-quarkus     -DclassName="com.sample.DemoEndpoint"     -Dpath="/persons"

To fix the issue described here, I had to add this dependency.

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
  <artifactId>quarkus-resteasy-jsonb</artifactId>
</dependency>

here is my full pom.xml after I added the above dependency. Again, 99% of the below pom.xml came from the mvn command above.

Solution 2

Try to add particular version of serializer

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
        <artifactId>resteasy-jackson-provider</artifactId>
        <version>${resteasy.version}</version>
    </dependency>

Solution 3

@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)

adding those annotations solved my issue.

Solution 4

For me it was about trying to serialize the array to XML. If you would like that it would need a wrapper class like this for movies:

@XmlRootElement(name = "movies")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class Movies
{
    @XmlElement(name = "movie")
    private List<Movie> movies;

    public List<Movie> getMovies() {
        return movies;
    }

    public void setMovies(List<Movie> movies) {
        this.movies = movies;
    }
}

This way it can be serialized under the root object.

I am developing RESTEasy Example. In this example I am using all latest dependencies and deploying om tomcat 8.x version. I can successfully deploy the application but when I am launching the url: http://localhost:8080/RESTfulExample/rest/restwebservice/list, I see following errors are coming. Please guide what is going wrong here.
