I am getting error using IBM's Integrated Web Services (IWS) on the IBM i (a.k.a AS400) w/RPG and getting this message, when trying to test a RESTful web service to accept JSON as input media. When input media is ALL it works, but trying to use POST with input media JSON. BTW - I am new to all of this web stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

          When input media is ALL it works, because Content-Type: text/plain is accepted.
          If you want deploy service as json service you should in request headers specify:
          Content-Type : application/json
