SlingPostServlet returns 500 error instead of 404 when attempting to delete
non-existent resource
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-1247
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1247
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Servlets
Affects Versions: Servlets Post 2.0.4
Environment: Ubuntu Linux, Standalone Sling 5
Reporter: Andrew Khoury
Priority: Minor
According to this documentation at:
http://sling.apache.org/site/manipulating-content-the-slingpostservlet.html#ManipulatingContent-TheSlingPostServlet-ContentRemoval
if a resource trying to be deleted through the SlingPostServlet is not found,
the servlet should return a 404/Not Found status. It is instead returning a
500/Error status and raising an exception
