> *Usecase*: Try to delete a blob (size ~ 107kb) from a swift container using 
> BlobStore.removBlob() api of jclouds.
> *Issue*: Following exception is found in console: 
> com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: 
> *Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was STRING at line 1 column 1 path $*.
> *Code*: Sharing the code snippet that I've used to delete a blob from a swift 
> container.
> BlobStore blobStore = getBlobStoreContext();              
> blobStore.removeBlob(containerName, fileName);
> {code:java}
> //To get the BlobStoreContext for OpenStack Swift
> private BlobStoreContext getBlobStoreContext() {
>  final Properties override = new Properties();
>  override.put(KeystoneProperties.KEYSTONE_VERSION, "3");
>  override.put(KeystoneProperties.SCOPE, "project:" + 
> swiftConfig.getProject());
>  
>  final String credential = swiftConfig.getPassword();
>  final String identity = swiftConfig.getUserDomain() + ":" + 
> swiftConfig.getUsername();
>  final String authUrl = swiftConfig.getAuthUrl();
>  
>  return ContextBuilder.newBuilder("openstack-swift")
>  .endpoint(authUrl+"/v3")
>  .credentials(identity,credential)
>  .overrides(override)
>  .buildApi(BlobStoreContext.class);
>  }
> {code}
>  *Debug:* Following are my observations after debugging the code.
>  # The type of the blobstore is found to be RegionScopedSwiftBlobStore.
>  # stepinto blobStore.*removeBlob*(containerName, fileName);                  
>                       at line 396 in *RegionScopedSwiftBlobStore* class, I 
> found it expects a response from *StaticLargeObjectApi* as shown in the below 
> code and this is where the exception occurs:                                  
>                    **                                                  
> DeleteStaticLargeObjectResponse response = 
> api.getStaticLargeObjectApi(regionId, container).delete(name); 
> *Analysis*: While the api BlobStore.removeBlob fails to delete a blob in a 
> Swift container, it works fine in AWS S3 and GCS container. I also observed 
> that if I use *ObjectApi.delete(objectName)* instead of 
> *BlobStore.removeBlob* then the blob gets deleted from the swift container 
> without any issue. As per the java doc of StaticLargeObjectApi, it is in beta 
> and still under evaluation. Is this api stable?
> Any help is highly appreciated.
> Thank you.
