PUT and POST getting 405 Method Not Allowed Error for Restful Web Services

It accepts only GET and DELETE. Hence, you need to tweak the server to enable PUT and POST as well.

Allow: GET, DELETE

Well, apparently I had to change my PUT calling function updateUser. I removed the @Consumes, the @RequestMapping and also added a @ResponseBody to the function. So my method looked like this:

@RequestMapping(value="/{id}",method = RequestMethod.PUT)
@ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.OK)
@ResponseBody
public void updateUser(@PathVariable int id, @RequestBody User temp){
    Set<User> set1= obj2.getUsers();
    for(User a:set1)
    {
        if(id==a.getId())
        {
            set1.remove(a);
            a.setId(temp.getId());
            a.setName(temp.getName());
            set1.add(a);
        }
    }
    Userlist obj3=new Userlist(set1);
    obj2=obj3;
}

And it worked!!! Thank you all for the response.
