----------------------------------------

             Summary: Accept Header is not honored / Errors
                 Key: SOLR-11760
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11760
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: Response Writers
    Affects Versions: 6.6
            Reporter: Chantal Ackermann
            Priority: Minor


We generally request JSON from SOLR, via HTTP with {{wt=json}} (without using a 
client impl).

In certain error cases, however, no JSON is returned but XML, most likely 
because the request handler that understands the parameter {{wt=json}} is not 
even executed if the error is a fundamental one. It would be nice if in this 
case the `Accept:application/json` header could be honored.

{code}
$ http http://localhost:8983/solr/offers_gb/select q==*:* wt=json rows=1 
Accept:"application/json" -v
POST /solr/offers_gb/select?q=%2A%3A%2A HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 27
Content-Type: application/json
Host: localhost:8983
User-Agent: HTTPie/0.9.4

{
    "rows": "1",
    "wt": "json"
}

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

{code}
$ http http://localhost:8983/solr/offers_gb/select q==bla:* wt==json rows==1 
Accept:"application/json" -v
