XML Parsing Error: no root element found

The ERROR occurs when your client send a request like below:

curl -X GET --header 'Accept: application/json' 'http://192.168.1.249:9001/students/

you can see in header like 'Accept: application/json' this means the client only accept the server response in JSON format.

But Server produces a response type in XML content type and it will try to parse the XML to JSON. During this phase exception triggers.

SOLUTION :

Please change the response content type to application/json or Change the request header to 'Accept: application/xml'.

Thanks.
