I am making a call to a Rest service developed using Dropwizard and able to successfully make calls to Get requests however Post request to the same service (another end point offcourse) is not working. It gives a 500 server error and in the logs I see the following exception:

Classcast exception: io.dropwizard.jetty.BiDiGzipHandler$WrappedInputStream cannot be cast to org.eclipse.jetty.server.request

Here is a snippet of how I am making a call:

RequestPojo pojo = new RequestPojo (123, "test");
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
String json=null;
try{
  json = mapper.writeValueAsString(pojo);
}
catch(Exception e){
   //loggers
}
Response response = target.request().accept(MediaType.Application_JSON).post(Entity.json(jsonString);
String id = response.readEntity(new GenericType<Map>(){}.get("generatedID"));

I hardly see anything for this exception on any of the posts. Can some one help me with this exception. Thanks for any help.

Can you share the snippet where the resource is defined in the Dropwizard service? – Dhruvil Vaghela Sep 04 '18 at 12:29
I got this working by setting gzipEnabled and chunkedEncodingEnabled to false but now another Put request is not working. :( – Arunabh Sep 04 '18 at 14:33
I could be of more help if you could put up here the code snippet from the resource class. – Dhruvil Vaghela Sep 06 '18 at 06:18
Thanks Dhruvil but I got it to work. – Arunabh Sep 07 '18 at 15:07

It'd be great if you could update the question to reflect the solution. It'll help others. – Dhruvil Vaghela Sep 07 '18 at 17:48
