Patch on RestClient on Spring Boot 3.2.1 not working.

[jamesbradlee]

Servlet.service() for servlet [dispatcherServlet] in context with path [] threw exception [Request processing failed: org.springframework.web.client.ResourceAccessException: I/O error on PATCH request for "https://example.com": Invalid HTTP method: PATCH] with root cause

restClient.patch()
  .uri("https://example.com")
  .retrieve()

@testersen "not working" is not very useful and that sample in text is hiding the information that we need. Copy/pasting the code in a vanilla restclient does not throw that exception.

Please make sure to clarify the report. If you're doing a patch against example.com then you should be able to share a small sample we can run ourselves that exhibit the problem. You can attach a zip to this issue or push the code to a GitHub repository.
