Rest Service created by SDK doesnt work. 404

Alexej Geldt

I have very strange problem.

Im trying to create a rest resource module for jira 5.2 using atlassian sdk 4.1.3

i used to do this many times already, but this time im getting 404 on fresh and clean rest service created by sdk. It is so trivial that i just have no clue what could be wrong.

This is what i did.

1. ran atlas-create-jira-plugin-module

2. chosen option 14 for rest resource module

3. kept all properties at default (hit Enter 4 times)

4. ran atlas-run. server came up without problems.

5. went to /jira/rest/myrestresource/1.0/message. response: 404

huh? i did not change anything, this is sdk code and i did it already many times. Maybe i am missing something in the url?

code created by sdk

atlassian-plugin.xml

<rest name="My Rest Resource" i18n-name-key="my-rest-resource.name" key="my-rest-resource" path="/myrestresource" version="1.0">
    <description key="my-rest-resource.description">The My Rest Resource Plugin</description>
  </rest>

MyRestResource.java

/**
 * A resource of message.
 */
@Path("/message")
public class MyRestResource {

    @GET
    @AnonymousAllowed
    @Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
    public Response getMessage()
    {
       return Response.ok(new MyRestResourceModel("Hello World")).build();
    }
}

MyRestResourceModel.java

@XmlRootElement(name = "message")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class MyRestResourceModel {

    @XmlElement(name = "value")
    private String message;

    public MyRestResourceModel() {
    }

    public MyRestResourceModel(String message) {
        this.message = message;
    }

    public String getMessage() {
        return message;
    }

    public void setMessage(String message) {
        this.message = message;
    }
}

Im not getting any exceptions or errors. It looks like im using wrong URL. What could be wrong with this?

/jira/rest/myrestresource/1.0/message

I have also verified that My Rest Resource module is deployed and enabled in plugin manager.

Yes. Found it.

The problem was indeed in another service that clashed with the same path pattern /message as my new plugin.

Symtomps: 404 on correct url even when service is indicated as deployed and started. no exception on service access.

Solution: make sure there is no other rest service with the same path mapping.
