404 Error for a Jersey Tomcat web server created in eclipse with java

I created a server starting from a dynamic web project. When I make a request to it by typing 

http://localhost:8080/restserver/myserver

or 

http://localhost:8080/restserver/myserver/myserver

into the search bar of my web browser I receive the response 

HTTP Status 404 – Not Found

Type Status Report

Message /restserver/src/demo/demo

Description The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.
Apache Tomcat/9.0.13

I don't know what I need to change with my server program. I've been following this tutorial to set my server up, and it doesn't look like they have much more than me.

My expected response to my request is

enter image description here

I've tried just about everything. Deleting and reinstalling eclipse and tomcat, removing my ~/.m2/repository folder. The log file looks basically like this,

127.0.0.1 - - [02/Dec/2018:13:09:20 -0600] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 404 1074

(I have know idea where the 302 cam from, just saw this)

so I'm thinking it might be that the requests aren't being authenticated because of the - in the third column? I also don't understand the catalina.properties file, but I followed those instructions and it didn't help. I also read a few things about proxies that I didn't really understand because I couldn't figure out how to disable proxies.

Update

I changed 

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/serv/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

to 

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>Jersey Web Application</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Jersey Web Application</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/serv/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

And now when I visit http://localhost:8080/RestServer/serv/myserver

I receive the error

Solution

  • You need to use Jersey controller com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer in your mapping and specify the resources path

    <init-param> 
   <param-name>com.sun.jersey.config.property.packages</param-name> 
   <param-value>com.resources</param-value>  <!--comma separated packages-->
</init-param>

    and add dependency for class javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext

    <dependency> 
   <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId> 
   <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId> 
   <version>2.2.6</version> 
</dependency>

    With respect to web module version 4, I am able to run the application. I am using java 8 and tomcat 9.
