Hi, after updating GeoServer from 2.10.1 to 2.12-RC1 I'm experiencing the same behaviour when POSTing to the REST API for seeding tiles in the integrated GWC. Sending the xml document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <seedRequest> <name>workspace:layer</name> <bounds> <coords> <double>1445211.16687</double> <double>6064302.74797</double> <double>1461859.20951</double> <double>6083740.16150</double> </coords> </bounds> <gridSetId>EPSG:3857hidpi</gridSetId> <zoomStart>17</zoomStart> <zoomStop>17</zoomStop> <format>image/png8</format> <type>reseed</type> <threadCount>4</threadCount> </seedRequest> to /geoserver/gwc/rest/seed/workspace:layer.xml results in an HTTP 500 response. Geoserver.log is showing the following exception: 2017-10-19 15:16:05,914 ERROR [geoserver.rest] - seedRequest com.thoughtworks.xstream.mapper.CannotResolveClassException: seedRequest at com.thoughtworks.xstream.mapper.DefaultMapper.realClass(DefaultMapper.java:81) ... A similar problem has been discussed on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10438124/xstream-cannotresolveclassexception), which leads me to the conclusion, that xstream fails to deserialize the posted xml document because the specified type, in my case 'seedRequest', in your case 'user', has not been found in the current java package. As I'm not a java developer I'm unable to dig in further.
