Ah, thank you for the hint.. indeed does not happen with a vanilla
GeoServer, breaks the moment
the OGC API module is plugged in.

The issue is indeed related to the Spring upgrade... right after the
upgrade, parts of the OGC APIs would
not work anymore, due to lack of converters set up in the OGC API
dispatcher... which in turn was
related to this one liner change:

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/5772/files#diff-e2a648d6b8dcdcbc9402cf852d0073bd9953c45cad49c28eb0026f241e799177R134

I've found that the handler adapter no longer had the converters wired in,
because they are now injected through
a Spring factory method (this is a change that occurred inside Spring)...
so I made another change to get those back, here:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/commit/ff21be0b30d94034df6cd5f26d305a6d72dfde1c#diff-e2a648d6b8dcdcbc9402cf852d0073bd9953c45cad49c28eb0026f241e799177R132
(also tried to discuss that change with you in the PR, see
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/5791, but got no follow up)

This last change is what is causing the REST API to break... I'm guessing
the auto-wiring is breaking something
in the REST API, possibly because Spring is not making it easy to have two
REST APIs sitting in the same context
(something that is definitely not desirable anyways, OGC API and REST are
meant to work in different ways, the
less they share, the better).

Maybe it can be solved by creating a sub-context for the OGC API? But I'm
not sure how to go about creating it.
This other avenue seems to work, basically programmatically replicating
what the auto-wiring would do,
without apparent interference over in the REST API:

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/5817

Cheers
Andrea
