JAX-RS @PathParam beginning with variable argument

I am using JAX-RS 1.x to develop a simple RESTFul service like /{app_id}/job/list/

So I have defined a resource class like below:

@Path("/{app_id}/job")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class JobService {

  @GET
  @Path("list")
  public Response list(@PathParam("app_id") final String appId) {
    // ....
  }
}

But it seems the implementation (RestEasy in my case) is not able to find this resource. If I make it /job/{app_id}/list, it works but not /{app_id}/job/list.

Is it because I have used variable {app_id} as a beginning path element? Does JAX-RS expects first path element to be fixed?

The root resource is defined as just /.

No, a template parameter can be anywhere in the path and it can be on the resource (= class) or subresource (= method).

Your code works if there is no other JAX-RS resource. Check your system for other @Paths that might match your URI path.
