Error while trying to delete with DELETE method using web service Rest in Java

Question

I created a Web Service REST in Java. All operations are working except that of DELETE which returns the following error:

HTTP DELETE method:

@DELETE
@Path("excluir/{idpromocao}")
public void excluir(@PathParam("idpromocao") int idpromocao){    
    Promocao P = new Promocao();
    P.setIdpromocao(idpromocao);

    PromocaoOp promo = new PromocaoOp();
    P = promo.buscar(P);

    promo.remove(P);
}

Exclusion method:

public void remove(Promocao promocao) {
    id_conexao = N.Conectar();

    String sql = "delete from promocao where idpromocao=?";

    try {


        stmt = id_conexao.prepareStatement(sql);
        stmt.setInt(1, promocao.getIdpromocao());

        //executa
        stmt.execute();

        System.out.println("Excluido");

    } catch (SQLException e) {
        System.err.println("ERRO ao excluir promoção - " + e);

    } finally {
        N.Desconectar();
    }
}

See the first line of your figure:

There it says:

GET SolicitaçãoFailed RequestFailed --> Status: (405)

Notice that the first word is GET. It should be written DELETE.

That is, the code that is trying to call your service is using the wrong HTTP method.

Also, take a look in that question to improve your JDBC code.
