Discussion:
Deployment in Tomcat 7

Hi,

I have been using the documentation to attempt to deploy a basic
application in Tomcat 7. I have used each of the Servlet 3.0 types of
configurations, (one without any web.xml, and two with a web.xml) and a
Servlet 2.x deployment descriptor based config. None of them work.

The closest thing to anything working was the following:

* <servlet>
<servlet-name>IntegrationTestFacade</servlet-name>

<servlet-class>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>com.sun.jersey.config.property.packages</param-name>

<param-value>com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.ws.resource</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>IntegrationTestFacade</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>*


My @ApplicationPath is "rttestfacade". I have a helloworld resource
annotated as follows:

*@Path("/helloworld")
public class ARIResource {

@GET
@Produces("text/html")
public String helloworld() {
return "<html><head></head><body>HELLO WORLD!</body></html>";
}
}*

I point my browser to http://myhost/<context-path>/rttestfacade/helloworld,
and get a 404 not found exception. I did add some tracing to the getClass
method in my class that implements Application. I see the following in my
eclipse tomcat server console:

"
Jan 13, 2012 6:30:12 PM
com.sun.jersey.server.impl.application.WebApplicationImpl _initiate
INFO: Initiating Jersey application, version 'Jersey: 1.11 12/09/2011 11:05
AM'
Jan 13, 2012 6:30:12 PM
com.sun.jersey.server.impl.application.DeferredResourceConfig$ApplicationHolder
<init>
INFO: Instantiated the Application class
com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.svc.IntegrationTestApplication
Just added a resource to the test application: class
com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.ws.resource.ARIResource
Just added a resource to the test application: class
com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.ws.resource.ARIResource
Just added a resource to the test application: class
com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.ws.resource.ARIResource
Just added a resource to the test application: class
com.traveltripper.stargazer.intg.rt.ws.resource.ARIResource
"

The 'just added a resource ...' is my little tracing. Why this method gets
called four times is a mystery. However, in my browser I get a 404 resource
not found error. With the other configurations I get the same 404 error,
but I also don't see any indication that Jersey is initializing my resource
provider.

Is there a comprehensive cook-book for Tomcat 7 deployments? That would be
really useful.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
