I try my first steps with Java Rest Services. It should be with BASIC Authentication. I use Glassfish 4.1.1. This is my ToDo class. It doesn't work. I don't know why and I hope that someone can help me.
I use one class as root class. One service class and a class which collects the services.

I think you should replace
<url-pattern>/RestServiceBasicAuth/rest-api/todos</url-pattern>
with
<url-pattern>/rest-api</url-pattern>
