jersey java client returning HTTP error code : 406

I am doing a REST Call to a Teamcity URI, to gte the lastSuccessful build Number but getting 406. If i use the same URI in Chrome's REST Console, i get the correct String ( Which is the latest Build Number 

import com.sun.jersey.api.client.Client;
import com.sun.jersey.api.client.ClientResponse;
import com.sun.jersey.api.client.WebResource;
import com.sun.jersey.api.client.filter.HTTPBasicAuthFilter;

public class LastSuccessBuildNum {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        try {

            Client client = Client.create();
            // client basic auth demonstration 
            client.addFilter(new HTTPBasicAuthFilter("username", "password"));

            WebResource webResource = client
                    .resource("http://localteamcity.com/teamcity/app/rest/buildTypes/id:bt26/builds/status:SUCCESS/number");
            ClientResponse response = webResource.accept("application/json")
                    .get(ClientResponse.class);

            if (response.getStatus() != 200) {
                throw new RuntimeException("Failed : HTTP error code : "
                        + response.getStatus());
            }

            String output = response.getEntity(String.class);

            System.out.println("Output from Server .... \n");
            System.out.println(output);
        } catch (Exception e) {

            e.printStackTrace();

        }

    }

}

stdout:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed : HTTP error code : 406
    at LastSuccessBuildNum.main(LastSuccessBuildNum.java:22)

Check the MIME type of the transfer in Chrome REST Client, maybe it is not json. 406 means that the server does not have a MIME type that the client accepts: http://www.checkupdown.com/status/E406.html

Is there a specific reason that you use jersey client instead of Apache Http Components?
