java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException: "utf-8" in ActionInvoker

[Jan Mar]

Hey guys!

I am getting a weird exception when the ActionInvoker tries to handle
a LOCK request with the following headers:

HEADER: content-type=text/xml; charset="utf-8"
HEADER: connection=keep-alive
HEADER: host=localhost:9000
HEADER: content-length=229
HEADER: accept=*/*
HEADER: user-agent=WebDAVFS/1.9.0 (01908000) Darwin/11.2.0 (x86_64)
HEADER: timeout=Second-600
HEADER: depth=0

@68di3kehk
Internal Server Error (500) for request LOCK /logo.png

Oops: UnsupportedEncodingException
An unexpected error occured caused by exception
UnsupportedEncodingException: "utf-8"

play.exceptions.UnexpectedException: Unexpected Error

It seems that the encoding is extracted from the content-type header
as "utf-8" including the double quotes. Is this a Play bug or just a
wrong header being sent by Mac OS X Finder?

Best

this is a bug in jax-ws 2.1.x
