I created a jersey REST application (helloworld) with java+eclipse+tomcat 8.5+maven. The static index.html works fine when I run the project on server. But rest endpoint giving 404.

REST api Hello world class:-

@Path("/hello")
public class MyJerseyPage{

    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
    public String sayHtmlHello() {
        return "Hello from Jersey";
    }
}

Rest config class:-

@ApplicationPath("/api")
public class RESTConfig extends Application {

}

 "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" >

<web-app>
  <display-name>Archetype Created Web Application</display-name>
</web-app>

Output:-

get on: http://localhost:8080/therestproject/api/hello -> 404 - The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.

The SAME SETUP used to work before, when pom.xml was having below versions of dependencies:-

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-servlet</artifactId>
    <version>1.19</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.tomcat</groupId>
    <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
    <version>6.0.44</version>
</dependency>

IT USED TO WORK! IT STARTED THROWING 404 WHEN I CHANGED POM.XML AND CHANGED THE JERSEY VERSION TO LATEST. I want to keep the latest jersey version since i have to do oauth2 on top of this. Please help.

This answer might point to a possible solution: add the jersey-ri dependency.
