[Bug 1567977] [NEW] POST /servers with incorrect content-type returns 400, should be 415

 

Public bug reported:

(master nova april 8, 2016)

POSTing to /servers with a content-type of text/plain and a text/plain
body results in a response code of 400. This is incorrect. It should be
415: <https://httpstatuses.com/415>

Here's the gabbi demo:

- name: post bad content-type
  xfail: True
  POST: /servers
  request_headers:
      content-type: text/plain
  data: I want a server so badly
  status: 415
