Hi, sorry, I was asking too many things and not being clear.

I am doing a curl with an intentionally unsupported content-type to see the 
response in those cases. I was expecting something more specific such as:

HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type
The request's Content-Type is not supported. Expected:
application/json
text/plain

but getting "404 The requested resource could not be found." made me think 
that the way I am handling multiple content types is not the right way with 
Akka Http.

Thank you so much,
Christian
