Please help me for this. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Change your @Path("api") to @Path("")

    @Path("")
    public class RequestHandler 
    {
       @GET
       @Path("/get_quote")
       public String GetQuote()
       {
           return "GOdddd Working";
       }
    }

Alternatively, you could change your web.xml to:

<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> and set your @Path("/apis") and it would do the same thing.

You have your http://servername/context/web.xml servlet path/class annotated path/method annotated path
