I am new to web services. have developed a simple rest web svc in java using Eclipse, Tomcat following this link. Application successfully runs on Tomcat but when i deploy it to IBM WebSphere 8.5.5. It deploys successfully but fails to start. I know its something with my Web.xml so i am adding it for rectification. Tried this but to no avail.
