Basic full configuration for Jersey on Tomcat in eclipse

I'm new to Jersey and trying to set up a basic webapp using Tomcat and eclipse. I've looked at numerous tutorials and examples, but they're all different from each other, or omit a part of the process (e.g. with Spring, with a web.xml file, deploying a non-Jersey application on Tomcat, etc.).
Here's where I am so far:
I created a Dynamic Web Project called TestProject in eclipse, and converted it to a maven project.
Here's my pom.xml:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

I have a package com.test which contains 3 classes:
TestApplication to create an application without a web.xml:
#ApplicationPath("/*")
public class TestApplication extends ResourceConfig {
public TestApplication(){
packages("com.test");
register(JacksonFeature.class);
}
}
TestProvider as a minimal resource class:
#Path("/test")
public class TestProvider {
#GET
#Produces("application/json")
public Test getTest(){
return new Test();
}
}
Test as a minimal object to return in JSON format:
public class Test {
private String field = "test";
}
I have a Tomcat server running with the project added as a web module. If I run the project (Run as > Run on server), and navigate to http://localhost:8080/test or http://localhost:8080/TestProject/test I get a standard tomcat 404.
Here's my Tomcat startup log:

If I create a non-jersey HttpServlet with the annotation #WebServlet(name="hello",urlPatterns={"/hello"}), I do get a response at http://localhost:8080/TestProject/hello.
What am I missing? Also, is any of the above not 'best practice' for a basic web application? It seems this technology changes quite rapidly, and it's difficult to know which examples or methods are outdated.

Adding to the answer, if you are using jackson then dependency is already mentioned as jersey-media-json-jackson -
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-json-jackson</artifactId>
<version>${jersey.version}</version>
</dependency>
There are other json providers as well.
If you want to use MOXy as your JAXB implementation, then you can use
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-moxy</artifactId>
<version>${jersey.version}</version>
</dependency>
To use JSON-P as your JSON provider you need to add
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-json-processing</artifactId>
<version>${jersey.version}</version>
</dependency>
To use Jettison as your JSON provider you need to add jersey-media-json-jettison module to your pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-json-jettison</artifactId>
<version>${jersey.version}</version>
</dependency>
To use multipart features you need to add jersey-media-multipart module to your pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-multipart</artifactId>
<version>${jersey.version}</version>
</dependency>
Further details, please refer to https://jersey.java.net/documentation/latest/media.html

spring & maven modular web servise with spring boot

I'm trying to make a modular web app with a separate web service. I started with the entities, then DAO, then service and in the end Web service module. I have a parent module and the pom.xml looks like this:

If I comment the parent tag

everything works fine. Maybe the spring in the Parent module and in the ws module are not compatible? I work with java 1.7. If I try to deploy this version the stack trace looks like this:

Eclipse and Dynamic Web Project

I have had a simple Rest service running in eclipse using tomcat. Due to an unfortunate incident with GParted the setup is no more. I did however have an up-to-date backup so made a clean installation of Ubuntu, Eclipse and Java.
I then imported the project folder and added a tomcat server v7.0.
The project was accessible on: http://localhost:8080/one/api/ however with the new setup all I get is 404.
What have I forgotten ?

mvn tomcat7:run-war or tomcat:run-war give a 404 and no logs

I have one problem wich make me crazy :
I have one maven project , (play2 application in maven project with play2war plugin)
when I launch mvn tomcat7:run-war or tomcat:run-war (i change the servlet container) this is the rsult :
[INFO] Running war on http://localhost:8090/arhswfe

all seems to be ok but when I test on url it give me a 404 and no logs,
in a standalone server it is ok.
Have you got any idea? I have configured all it is possible :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<configuration>
<tomcatLoggingFile>D:/log.txt</tomcatLoggingFile>
<warDirectory>${project.build.directory}</warDirectory>
<update>true</update>
<contextReloadable>true</contextReloadable>
<port>8090</port>
<warFile>arhswfe.war</warFile>
<ignorePackaging>true</ignorePackaging>
<contextFile>../configuration/context.xml</contextFile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
logs always empty no error but `404....

For logging add in plugin configuration this part
<extraDependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
<version>1.7.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>

</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
<version>1.2.17</version>
</dependency>
</extraDependencies>

use <path>/</path> tag so your configuration becomes:
<configuration>
<tomcatLoggingFile>D:/log.txt</tomcatLoggingFile>
<warDirectory>${project.build.directory}</warDirectory>
<update>true</update>
<contextReloadable>true</contextReloadable>
<port>8090</port>
**<path>/</path>**
<warFile>arhswfe.war</warFile>
<ignorePackaging>true</ignorePackaging>
<contextFile>../configuration/context.xml</contextFile>
</configuration>

Simple Spring MVC Hibernate project using Maven

I have been trying to follow this tutorial: http://viralpatel.net/blogs/2010/11/spring3-mvc-hibernate-maven-tutorial-eclipse-example.html
I did not ran into any problem using the tutorial but my question is: how can I create a war so I can deploy the app in tomcat?
Edit: I have been able to create the war and deploy it but now when trying to access localhost:8080/MavenWeb I have a 404 page.
The war is built properly and the name of it is MavenWeb.war, as specified in the finalName tag in the pom.xml file.
Here is the log of tomcat when deploying:

The welcome file is properly set in the web.xml, I created the corresponding list.jsp and put it in the WEB-INF/jsp folder.

The war is built, I am able to deploy it into Tomcat without any error, but when trying to access it with localhost:8080/MavenWeb/ I only have a white page.
The first page is configured this way under the web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
<display-name>Spring3-Hibernate</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>list.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
So if I properly understand, when accessing localhost:8080/MavenWeb/ I should be directly redirected to list.html

Did the following on this
Installed Tomcat 6, as the source and target was 1.5 http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html
Added the role manager-gui to tomcat-users.xml
<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="manager-gui"/>
Then logged in to the http://localhost:8080/manager/ successfully deploy the Hello World Servlet, which sadly was of little use to the OP as this code associated with the tutorial was not the finished code. Meh.
I suggested going through this mvn tutorial from sonatype as that would build up the Maven skills and knowledge to the point where this first tutorial could be troubleshooted effectively.
Also suggested including references to the pom XSD in pom.xml so that tools could validate the content of same as it was developed.
From the one of sonatype tutorial pom file we have
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
Then in IntelliJ, for example, I can enter < CTRL+SPACE and get a drop down list of valid elements that part of the file.

Your war did not get deployed properly. The startup log says that servlet-api.jar has not loaded correctly. Fix that first and then we can diagnose it a little further.
This is what the log says
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile
INFO: validateJarFile(C:\apache-tomcat-7.0.27\webapps\MavenWeb\WEB-INF\lib\servlet-api-2.5.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class
There seems to be 2 versions of servlet-api jar in your classpath and one of them is causing problems. Also you're using JDK 7. Please check compatibility of the jars that you are using with JDK 7
I think you have servlet.jar and servlet-api-2.5.jar in your classpath. Remove servlet.jar and you should be rolling.

Verify the name of the war that is getting created and deployed on tomcat.
Many times maven will create war files with version numbers in it. That impacts the URL to be used.
Also, I may be wrong about this, but in the web.xml, shouldn't the URL Pattern be: "/*" instead of just "/"

Do you have a typo here??
In your web.xml you have specified list.jsp as the welcome file list.
But after displaying the web.xml, you have written that the list.html is not getting redirected.
Hope this helps you.
Cheers.
