I also try this too ```setBody Json encodeToString UserRequest emirhan 1234 ``` getting same error

Just log your body Currently you produce this ``` username emirhan password 1234 ``` but you need this ``` username emirhan password 1234 ``` Why do you handle serialization yourself How do you get this body normally

Using Json should work thinking face

Can you please add a logger to get the real body set to your server

I m trying this in test i add CallLogging for my test method but not logging

```install CallLogging level = <http Level INFO|Level INFO> format val status = it response status val httpMethod = it request httpMethod value Status $status HTTP method $httpMethod filter call gt call request path startsWith ```

Doing same as you but still getting error maybe this is about ktor or kotlin versions

dude i don t understand if you want to check here my repo joy <https github com Methdogg KtorFirstProject tree develop>

hfhbd · Answer

In your `testModule` you don t call `configureSerialization `

hfhbd · Answer

And BTW you should not use 2 different serialization libraries I would remove `Jackson` and only use `kotlinx serialization`

Emirhan Emmez · Answer

you are a lifesaver i m using jackson library because of openapi library
