I am new to Java, I have been trying to create a rest service using Jersey 2.23 on Tomcat 8.0
I have read many other posts for the same, changed it accordingly and I am still getting the same error.

[![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/rHwZI.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/rHwZI.png)

URL: <http://localhost:8080/RestCalculator/api/GetStarted>

here is my service

```
package com.restcalculator;

import java.util.Date;

import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.POST;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import java.io.InputStream;

@Path("/")
public class RestfulCalculator 
{
    @GET
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    @Path("/GetStarted")
    public Response GetStarted()
    {
        String output = "RestfulCalculator Service is Running. Ping @" + new Date().toString();
        return Response.status(200).entity(output).build();
    }

}

```

```

I have updated the servlet class name as per Jersey 2.23. Please tell me what m I doing wrong.

**EDIT 2:**

Fixed servlet name, Tomcat server is running and index.html is loading.
I am getting this error now. It seems more relevant, bt I am not able to understand the problem.
