Tomcat deployment

Hopefully a simple error.
I have a simple prototype Restlet application which I am using to put together the process.
When run using the local test-cradle on port 8182 the application works fine. When a WAR is created and deployed to Tomcat I receive:

17-Dec-2013 08:44:10.059 WARNING [http-apr-8080-exec-7] org.restlet.service.Conv
erterService.toRepresentation Unable to find a converter for this object : com.e
ricsson.skillinventory.Resource@287cf889

The object is serialized (for completeness), but at this time I am not attempting to return this from the resource, I am returning a simple String object.

Do I need to register a Jackson converter even though it is not returned?

My resource code is as simple as:
@Get
public String getResource() {

Engine.setLogLevel(Level.FINE);

Form queryParams = getQuery();
String resourceId = queryParams.getFirstValue("resourceId");
System.out.println("Resource is " + resourceId);

Resource resource = new Resource();
resource.setResourceName("John Smith");

return "howdy folks (" + resourceId + ")";
}

Thanks in advance

Re: Tomcat deployment

Hello Steven,

My first thought is that the war is missing the org.restlet.ext.jackson extension (in the "WEB-INF/lib" subdirectory), and perhaps its dependencies.

I've made a test using the internal eclipse servlet container, and it works for me.

Best regards,

RE: Re: Tomcat deployment

Thanks, I added the ext-json JAR file but not the Jackson JAR file to my deployment WAR.
I will do so and try.
