Unable to find a MessageBodyReader of content-type text/html and type interface java.util.List
Please do not consider it as duplicate request as i have gone through all the post in stackoverflow, none of them answered. no response i found.
Issue is :
I am facing a very weird issue making a GET request with same piece of code via standalone application (inside main()). It works where as if the same code is put in Java EE app and deployed on a wildfly 10 server, it gives Error
"Unable to find a MessageBodyReader of content-type text/html and type interface java.util.List"
Code:
ClientConfig configuration = new ClientConfig();
configuration.property(ClientProperties.CONNECT_TIMEOUT, 10000);
configuration.property(ClientProperties.READ_TIMEOUT, 10000);
Client iexRestClient=ClientBuilder.newClient(configuration);
WebTarget webTarget =
iexRestClient.target("https://api.iextrading.com/1.0/ref-data/symbols/");
Response response =
webTarget.request().accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON).get(Response.class);
System.out.println("response status "+response.getStatus());
List<IEXTicker> tickers = response.readEntity(new
GenericType<List<IEXTicker>>(){});
System.out.println("size of tickers "+tickers.size());

Answer
I had the same problem. It was caused by the server which did not, as expected, return a content-type: application/json, but it returned:
content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
I see two options:
1) contact the provider of the service and ask that application/json be returned
2) read the result of your request as a String and manually convert it to an object. Similar to this:
String jsonData = response.readEntity(String.class);
ObjectMapper mapper = new com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper();
JsonNode jsonNode= mapper.readValue(jsonData, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode.class);
Now, create a List from the jsonNode data...
