使用Jersey客户端的PATCH请求

我想执行服务器支持的PATCH请求，以使用Jersey客户端进行测试。我的代码如下，但出现com.sun.jersey.api.client.ClientHandlerException: java.net.ProtocolException: HTTP method PATCH doesn't support output异常。有人可以让我知道以下代码有什么问题吗？

String complete_url = "http://localhost:8080/api/request";
String request = "[{\"op\":\"add\", \"path\":\"/name\", \"value\":\"Hello\"}]";
DefaultClientConfig config = new DefaultClientConfig();
    config.getProperties().put(URLConnectionClientHandler.PROPERTY_HTTP_URL_CONNECTION_SET_METHOD_WORKAROUND, true);
Client client = Client.create(config);
WebResource resource = client.resource(complete_url);
ClientResponse response = resource.header("Authorization", "Basic xyzabCDef")
 .type(new MediaType("application", "json-patch+json"))
 .method("PATCH", ClientResponse.class, request);

这是完整的例外，
