Hi

Oh, I thought SpringBoot made XML config a history :-)

I'll need to document it at CXF SpringBoot wiki page.

Can you give me a favor and double check that you have no Jettison 
library somewhere on the classpath ? If it is available then CXF will 
auto-create its own CXF JSONProvider which is more specific than Jackson 
(FYI it has wildcard Consumes/Produces which makes it less specific 
compared to other provider candidates)

Cheers, Sergey
