Question

I have written a sample REST service using Jersey2.

Here is my web.xml:

<web-app>
  <display-name>jerseysample</display-name>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
            <param-value>com.adaequare.rest.config.JerseyResourceInitializer</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

Here is my sample class:

package com.adaequare.resource;

import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.PUT;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;

@Path("/hello")
public class Hello {
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
    public String sayHtmlHello(){
        return "<html><title>Hello Jersey</title><body><h1>Hello Jersey</h1></body></html>";
    }

    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    public String sayPlainTextHello() {
        return "Hello Jersey";
    }

    // This method is called if XML is request
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_XML)
    public String sayXMLHello() {
        return "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>" + "<hello> Hello Jersey" + "</hello>";
    }

}

I have deployed it to Tomcat and am able to access the following URL:

http://localhost:8080/jerseysample/rest/hello

I tried writing a unit test this way:

package com.adaequare.client;

public class MyResourceTest {
    public static final URI BASE_URI = UriBuilder.fromUri("http://localhost").port(8080).build();
    private HttpServer server;
    private WebTarget target;

    @Before
    public void setUp() throws Exception {

        ResourceConfig rc = new ResourceConfig(Hello.class);
        server = GrizzlyHttpServerFactory.createHttpServer(BASE_URI, rc);

        server.start();
        Client c = ClientBuilder.newClient();
        target = c.target(BASE_URI);
    }

    @After
    public void tearDown() throws Exception {
        server.shutdownNow();
    }


    @Test
    public void testGetIt() {
        String responseMsg = target.path("jerseysample").path("rest").path("hello").request().get(String.class);
        System.out.println("I am here");
        assertEquals("Got it!", responseMsg);
    }
}

This class also throws the exception.

On executing this class, I am getting the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" javax.ws.rs.NotFoundException: HTTP 404 Not Found
    at org.glassfish.jersey.client.JerseyInvocation.convertToException(JerseyInvocation.java:917)

    at org.glassfish.jersey.client.JerseyInvocation$Builder.get(JerseyInvocation.java:296)
    at com.adaequare.client.TestClient.main(TestClient.java:14)

I am sure I am missing some configuration stuff. I have browsed to see the root cause of the issue but to no avail. Can someone please let me know if I am missing something?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Your service is mapped to (and you are saying you can access it): http://localhost:8080/jerseysample/rest/hello but using your client you are calling http://localhost:8080/restserver/rest/hello which is different URL. What is the surprise?

Try

WebTarget target = ClientBuilder.newClient().target("http://localhost:8080/jerseysample/rest/").path("hello");

As for the second test, try calling getUri() on your WebTarget to see what URL you are actually calling, it should help you see where is the problem.

After your update:

Well first thing is, you haven't specified (in terms of content negotiation) what content your client accepts (you did this in your previous example, which you deleted). But that should not be a problem since in that case server should send you any of implemented ones since by not specifying it you are stating you are supporting all kind of responses. But the problem probably is putting String.class into get() method. There should go an entity you want Jersey to transform the response into. If you want to get String I would do something like this:

Response response = target.path("jerseysample").path("rest").path("hello").
      request().get();
StringWriter responseCopy = new StringWriter();
IOUtils.copy((InputStream) response.getEntity(), responseCopy);

But you can't tell for sure which one of your three method is going to be called since it is on the same PATH, so you should also specify the content by passing it to request method.

OTHER TIPS

Hope this helps anyone who can be facing the same problem. In my case, I created my web service RESTful project with the Netbeans Wizard. By any reason, I didn't know why, it missed the ApplicationConfig.java class which contains the annotation @javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath("webresources"). I don't know why when I generated the client it showed me the correct path that I was expecting.

So, the solution for me was to copy another ApplicationConfig.java from other project and add my facade to the resources.

if you don't config web.xml to lookup the rest classes you need use @ApplicationPath to indicate the classes that keep the Rest resources.

@ApplicationPath("/rest")
public class AplicationRest extends Application
{
  @Override
  public Set<Class<?>> getClasses()
  {
      Set<Class<?>> resources = new java.util.HashSet<>();
      resources.add(com.acme.SomeRestService.class);
      return resources;
  }
}

There is an error in web.xml

    <init-param>
        <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
        <param-value>
            com.adaequare.rest.config.JerseyResourceInitializer
        </param-value>
    </init-param>

please try below

    <init-param>
        <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
        <param-value>
            com.adaequare.resource.config.JerseyResourceInitializer
        </param-value>
    </init-param>
