I am recevign this error when passing a wrong header in the request. I am doing this wantedly as part of the negative testing and wanted to handle this gracefully instead of throwing java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: "01" does not contain '/'. I have upgraded to <spring.version>3.1.2.RELEASE</spring.version> in maven but still I am getting it. Is this fixed in 3.1.2 or not?
