I had exactly the same problem @peeskillet describes in question comment.

I was using Jackson dependencies from version 2 and jackson-jaxrs from version 1.

Answer 2

If you are using Maven you can add following two maven dependency.

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.jaxrs</groupId>
            <artifactId>jackson-jaxrs-json-provider</artifactId>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype</groupId>
            <artifactId>jackson-datatype-jdk8</artifactId>
        </dependency>

And Add following code snippet.

@Configuration
public class CxfConfig {

    @Component
    @javax.ws.rs.ext.Provider
    public static class JacksonJaxbJsonProvider
            extends com.fasterxml.jackson.jaxrs.json.JacksonJaxbJsonProvider {

        @Autowired
        private ObjectMapper objectMapper;

        @PostConstruct
        public void init() {

            objectMapper.registerModule(new Jdk8Module());

        }

    }
}
