Getting not supported media type error

Question

Hi i am using Rest client i.e Postman to send the REST request but getting error :

{     "timestamp": 1432829209385,     "status": 415,     "error": "Unsupported Media Type",     "exception": "org.springframework.web.HttpMediaTypeNotSupportedException",     "message": "Content type 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8' not supported",     "path": "/api/v1/user" } 

My controller is :

@RequestMapping(value = "/user", method = RequestMethod.PUT, produces = "application/json")     public Map<String,Object> updateUser(@RequestBody @Valid User user) { //      userService.updateUser(user);         return ResponseHandler.generateResponse("", HttpStatus.ACCEPTED, false, null);     } 

I am sending the request as shown in picture via REST client.

Change your Content-Type in Postman to application/json. Click on the Headers button to do so.

Also you are not producing json in the method. Remove the produces="application/json" from the annotation
