<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p><span style="color: #008080; font-size: 10pt;"><p><span style="color: #000000;">Hi,</span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;">I'm new to RestEasy and for my test project I was following Bill Burke's "Restful Java" examples. My project works fine but what is bothering me is that I was unable to deploy it as described in the book. Bill provides two web.xml examples for deployment in both "JAX-RS-aware and unaware" containers. None worked for me. First I expected JBoss container to be JAX-RS aware. I tried to set my Application class as <servlet-class> but received error complaining that my application cannot be cast into servlet. Then I used "unaware" version setting my Application as <init-param> inside <servlet> declaration . No luck either. The error now says "resource unavilable". What finally worked for me is setting my Application as <</span>context-param>. The app works fine but I have a couple of issues with the way it is deployed. </span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">First, what does it mean that I can set up my Application through <context-param> only? Is something missing from my environment?</span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">Is it true that it is normally not advisable to deploy the application through <context-param> (I heard that it can cause strange behavior from Spring beans etc.)? </span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">Thanks!</span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="color: #008080; font-size: 10pt;"> </span> </p><p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Didn't work:</span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span> </p></span><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p></p><p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p></p><p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p></p><p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><p align="left"><span style="color: #008080; font-size: 10pt;"><p align="left" style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="color: #008080; font-size: 10pt;"> </span> </p></span></p></p><p align="left"><p align="left"><div align="left"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></div></p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span> </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p></p><p><span style="color: #000000;"><servlet></span></p><p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-name>Resteasy</servlet-name></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-class>path.MyApplication</servlet-class></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;"></servlet></span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>Didn't work:</p><p><a class="jive-link-anchor-small">#</a></p><p><a class="jive-link-anchor-small">#</a></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span> </p></p><p><span style="color: #000000;"><servlet></span></p><p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-name>Resteasy</servlet-name></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-class>org.jboss.resteasy.plugins.server.servlet.HttpServletDispatcher</servlet-class></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">        <init-param></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">             <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">             <param-value>path.MyApplication</param-value></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">        </init-param></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;"></servlet></span></p></p><div><div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></div></div><p align="left">Worked:</p><p align="left" style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;"><servlet></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-name>Resteasy</servlet-name></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">    <servlet-class>org.jboss.resteasy.plugins.server.servlet.HttpServletDispatcher</servlet-class></span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;"> </span><span style="color: #000000;"></servlet></span></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000;"> </span> </p><p align="left"><span style="color: #000000; font-size: 10pt;"><context-param><br/>    <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name><br/>    <param-value>path.MyApplication</param-value><br/></context-param></span></p></div>
