I try to upload a file via REST using Jersey (Moxy). For NTLM authentication I use the Apache HttpClient Lib and the Jersey Apache Connector.
CredentialsProvider credProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
credProvider.setCredentials(new AuthScope(host,
port, AuthScope.ANY_REALM),
new NTCredentials(user, pass, host, domain));
clientConfig.property(ApacheClientProperties.CREDENTIALS_PROVIDER,
credProvider);
clientConfig.connectorProvider(new ApacheConnectorProvider());
client = ClientBuilder
.newClient(clientConfig)
.register(MultiPartFeature.class)
.property(ClientProperties.SUPPRESS_HTTP_COMPLIANCE_VALIDATION, true);
The byte array with the file content should be sent with a POST request in the request body (no multipart request / no other data).
When I use a REST resource which handles a simple POST request with an empty body everything works fine. But when I try to send the file I get the following error:

I tried to send another entity like a JAXB handled object for raising another exception. But the same exception occurs. Without jersey, I implemented a working request.
ByteArrayInputStream buffer = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileContent);
InputStreamEntity i = new InputStreamEntity(buffer, buffer.available());
BufferedHttpEntity entity = new BufferedHttpEntity(i);
HttpPost request = new HttpPost(new URI(targetUrl));
request.setEntity(entity);
//define some request headers here
client.execute(request);
But I like to use jersey to handle the response content easily. How do I send a working POST request with file data as content?
