Try Query instead of Body as Bodies on DELETE requests have no defined semantics. Note that sending a body on a DELETE request might cause some existing implementations to reject the request. – PN10

I've used this official workaround recently:

@HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "/job/deletejob", hasBody = true)
Observable<JobDeleteResponseModel> jobDelete(@Body JobDeleteRequestModel model);

try this it's work

@HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "api/v3/delete", hasBody = true)
Call<ResponseBody> RESPONSE_BODY_CALL(@Header("Authorization") String authorization, @Body HashMap<String, List> stringListHashMap);

or check https://github.com/square/retrofit/issues/974

I had similar error.

In my case I was using @GET in Interface but then I corrected it to @POST method and it worked.

You need to specify parameters
method, path, hasBody

Kotlin way

@HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "event/eventRemovePicture", hasBody = true)
fun callDeleteImage(
    @Body body: RequestBody
): Call<RemoveEventPictureResponse>

Kotlin Code :

path is not required if your first argument to interface method is a url annotated with @Url Example :

@HTTP(method = "DELETE", hasBody = true)
fun deleteStudentFromDatabase(
    @Url url: String,
    @Body payload: StudentModel
 ): Observable<Any>

If first argument to interface method is not a url then use this

    @HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "{urlPath}", hasBody = true)
    fun deleteStudentFromDatabase(
        @Body payload: StudentModel,
        @Path("urlPath") url: String
     ): Observable<Any>

Change

@DELETE("/job/deletejob")
Observable<JobDeleteResponseModel> jobDelete( @Body JobDeleteRequestModel model);

to

@HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "/job/deletejob", hasBody = true)
Observable<JobDeleteResponseModel> jobDelete( @Body JobDeleteRequestModel model);

The difference is in

@DELETE("/job/deletejob") // For DELETE without body
@HTTP(method = "DELETE", path = "/job/deletejob", hasBody = true) // For DELETE with body
