Swagger - Jersey - Tomcat (Not able to generate swagger.json, shows 404 : Not found)

I am new to swagger and jersey.
My api operations are working fine. I followed the steps in the link: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-core/wiki/Swagger-Core-Jersey-2.X-Project-Setup-1.5 to add swagger into my api. When I give my try to access the swagge.json via the url:http://localhost:8080/messenger/webapi/swagger.json I get 404 -Not found. Here are my api codes. Can you please help me out with this.

I found the solution to the problem, I changed the swagger-jersey2-jaxrs artifact version to the latest one and also installed the compile dependencies along with it which was provided in the maven repository website.
Please check the version properly!!

When i am launching this on browser i am getting INTERNAL SERVER ERROR-500
Please help me how to handle INTERNAL SERVER ERROR during run time in REST. Am i missing on some dependencies?

Do you have jax-rs dependency in your pom?
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.ws.rs</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.ws.rs-api</artifactId>
</dependency>

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.servlet.ServletContext.getVirtualServerName()Ljava/lang/String;

I am building a web service using Java, Apache Cxf and Spring Frame work
Build: Maven
Deployment: Tomcat 8.0.42
The servlet used in web.xml is of version 2.5. When I deployed the WAR into tomcat and start the server I am getting the following Error. I have tried many of the solutions presented in the stack but none seems to be working. I have checked for the servlet-api.jar in maven dependencies and it is not present either. Also gave the servlet version in web.xml as 3.0, but it also didn't seem to resolve the issue. Need good inputs.
Thanks in advance

the method getVirtualServerName has been added in ServletContext in Servlet 3.1. Find the java doc's method getVirtualServerName
this problem can have at least 2 causes:
your servlet version is older that 3.1.
other jar has the servlet older version than 3.1
to solve it, you can try the below way.
I. to check your pom.xml whether there are the below code.
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>
if your pom.xml has the above code, it would still has that problem. you can do the second way.
II. to check your other jar has refer to the javax.servlet-api jar. for example, the org.apache.santuario has refer to the javax.servlet-api jar. the pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.santuario</groupId>
<artifactId>xmlsec</artifactId>
<version>1.4.3</version>
</dependency>
but when you look at the maven dependencies, it refer to the javax.servlet-api jar whose version is 2.3 older than 3.1.
so you should exclude the 2.3 version. pom.xml:
<!-- exclude servlet-api 2.3 jar-->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.santuario</groupId>
<artifactId>xmlsec</artifactId>
<version>1.4.3</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
<!-- servlet-api 3.1 version has getVirtualServerName() -->
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>

Jersey ClassNotFoundException when contextInitialized

When I connect to the selected servlet, it throw me a ClassNotFoundException. I am using eclipse neon with Tomcat8 and jersey RESTful framework. Its possible that I have the servlet conf in wrong in the web.xml?
Error showed:
SEVERE: Allocate exception for servlet jersey

Your web.xml content is incorrect, it matches with Jersey 2.x while you obviously use Jersey 1.x, indeed the package names start with com.sun.jersey in Jersey 1.x while in Jersey 2.x they start with org.glassfish.jersey.
Check here what should be the content of your web.xml in case of Jersey 1.x..
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jersey</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>org.CTAG.DATEX2REST</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>jersey</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/rest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Or switch to Jersey 2.x.

Fixing the dependencies
You are mixing Jersey 1.x (com.sun.jersey) and Jersey 2.x (org.glassfish.jersey).
I understand you wan't to use Jersey 2.x, so remove:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-server</artifactId>
<version>1.9</version>
</dependency>
And then add to your pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.containers</groupId>
<!-- if your container implements Servlet API older
than 3.0, use "jersey-container-servlet-core" -->
<artifactId>jersey-container-servlet</artifactId>
<version>2.23.2</version>
</dependency>
Deploying in a Servlet 2.x container (like Tomcat 6)
Jersey integrates with any Servlet containers supporting at least Servlet 2.5 specification. For these environments, you have to explicitly declare the Jersey container servlet in your web application's web.xml deployment descriptor file:
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>MyApplication</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
...
</init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>MyApplication</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/api/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
The content of the <init-param> element will vary depending on the way you decide to configure Jersey resources.
Deploying in a Servlet 3.x container (like Tomcat 7 and above)
In a Servlet 3.0 container, you just need to implement a custom Application / ResourceConfig subclass. For simple deployments, no web.xml is necessary at all. Instead, an #ApplicationPath annotation can be used to annotate the custom Application / ResourceConfig subclass and define the base application URI for all JAX-RS resources configured in the application:
#ApplicationPath("api")
public class MyApplication extends ResourceConfig {
public MyApplication() {
packages("org.foo.rest;org.bar.rest");
}
}
For other deployment options, have a look at the documentation.
