Issue

  • We have 2 JAX-RS web services that work well with DXP 7.3 u19. We upgrade recently to u36, then the 2 JAX-RS web services do not work anymore. . In the API Explorer we can see our Rest Application with the api and schema like other RestApplication, but they return error 404 when we make a call. 

Environment

  • 7.3

Resolution

  • The REST application might not be listening where you would expect it to listen.
     
    Your jax-rs application @Component also might have a @ApplicationPath("/api") annotation. (or something similar)

 

  • This annotation is now ignored as that /api part was not included in the path (while testing).
    We identified this when we compared the calls that the swagger ui was making with the endpoints described in the gogo shell using jaxrs:check.
  • As a solution, there are other ways to define the application path and we suggest to use them instead.
