JSON - No suitable HttpMessageConverter

[IsidroGH]

Hi, I have a fresh new Grails project with rest-client-plugin 1.0.2 installed.

In a controller I execute the following (copied from the unit test):

def rest = new RestBuilder()

def builder = new JSONBuilder() JSON j = builder.build {name = "test-group"}

def resp = rest.put("http://localhost:8080/rest-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/rest/entity/new"){ contentType "application/json" body j }

I always get the same error:

"Could not write request: no suitable HttpMessageConverter found for request type [grails.converters.JSON] and content type [application/json]"

Could you please tell me what can I do to solve it.

Thanks.

@dropy. Add this line to your code: j.toString()

def rest = new RestBuilder()

def builder = new JSONBuilder() JSON j = builder.build {name = "test-group"}

def resp = rest.put("http://localhost:8080/rest-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/rest/entity/new"){ contentType "application/json" body j.toString() }

or you can do another way without JSONBuilder.

def rest = new RestBuilder() def j = {name = "test-group"}

def resp = rest.put("http://localhost:8080/rest-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/rest/entity/new"){ contentType "application/json" json j }

or you can pass directly like this def resp = rest.put("http://localhost:8080/rest-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/rest/entity/new"){ contentType "application/json" json { name = "test-group" } }
