I have also gone through my ~/.m2/repository/javax/ws/rs/javax.ws.rs-api directory but it contains only one directory 2.0.1.

I am not able to understand the problem.

I am using Tomcat 8.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.ws.rs.core.Application.getProperties()Ljava/util/Map;

The Application#getProperties() method was introduced in JAX-RS 2.0. And this error typically happens when you mix JAX-RS 1.x and JAX-RS 2.x.

So check the JARs on your classpath and remove everything that relates to JAX-RS 1.x (and Jersey 1.x).

Once you are using Maven, you can run mvn dependency:tree and check what's going on with your dependencies.

I also see a few things that may cause some headaches:

  1. See below the correct Servlet API dependency for Tomcat 8 (don't forget the provided scope):

    <dependency>
    <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
    <version>3.1</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

  2. Ensure that all Jersey dependencies use the same version.

  3. You probably don't need the javax.ws.rs-api, jersey-server and jersey-common dependencies.

    • Use jersey-container-servlet, jersey-media-json-jackson and jersey-media-multipart dependencies.

    • The jersey-container-servlet dependency uses javax.ws.rs-api, jersey-server and jersey-common as transitive dependencies.

  4. You probably don't need <type>jar</type> in your dependencies.
