Can Jersey acts as Resource Handler in Spring MVC?

[jithin1009]

How to add Jersey as Resource Handler rather Spring MVC coming into picture, because I see following exception when trying to use Jersey as the ServletContainer.

In the exception if you can see Jakarta HttpServlet.service is going to Spring ResourceHttpMessageConverter, which should not happen I believe. Any configuration which needs to be for Jakarta HttpServlet.service to call Jersey ServletContainer.

Thanks for getting in touch, but it feels like this is a question that would be better suited to Stack Overflow. As mentioned in the guidelines for contributing, we prefer to use the issue tracker only for bugs and enhancements. Feel free to update this issue with a link to the re-posted question (so that other people can find it) or add some more details if you feel this is a genuine bug.

In this case, it looks like Jersey is handling the request with its JSP support, which forbids usage of the outputstream in any form. This sounds more like a setup issue than a Spring Framework bug. You should ask this question on StackOverflow, explaining in more details how your application is setting up Jersey and Spring.

Thanks!
