Robert Lazarski resolved AXIS2-5971.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I understand the problem though we have to be careful here since the Accept
header isn't mandatory neither and Axis2 considers content-type as the
definition of the MessageFormatter in a lot of places - in this case, on a null
content-type it will default to application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
What I propose, and committed for review though the 2.0.0 release is very near
and i am marking the issue as fixed for now, is using the Accept header if
there is no content-type header defined and the Accept header is not null.
I'm not 100% sure this fix will work as it lacks a test case and I don't use
REST in my own projects. A PR by the OP in this case would be better. I'm
pretty sure though this change will do no harm as it only gets applied for REST
when content-type is null and accept is not null.
See this commit.

> AxisServlet.processURLRequest use content-type header instead of accept

> Key: AXIS2-5971
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-5971
> Project: Axis2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: kernel
> Affects Versions: 1.7.8
> Reporter: Marti Pamies Sola
> Assignee: Robert Lazarski
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Class org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServlet has the following code
> {code:java}
> // public void processURLRequest() throws IOException,
> ServletException {
> try {
> RESTUtil.processURLRequest(messageContext,
> response.getOutputStream(),
> request.getContentType());
> this.checkResponseWritten();
> } catch (AxisFault e) {
> setResponseState(messageContext, response);
> processFault(e);
> }
> closeStaxBuilder(messageContext); }
> {code}
> As fas as I understand, this code is involed when diong REST and recieving an
> URL request without body.
> The problem is that this method looks for request.getContentType() instead of
> request Accept Header to determine to messageFormater to use. This behaviour
> make content type mandatory for URL client request which has no sense, as it
> is a header to indicate server response content type.
