WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 404 -

I am learning about websockets and followed the instructions here: http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/java/HomeWebsocket/WebsocketHome.html

I' using tomcat v8.0.21 to deploy my webapp but get the following error

My JavaScript Project looks fine, when I visit the webapp: my localhost and visit WebSocketJavaScriptProject

Although in the console window get the error: WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:8080/WebsocketHome/actions' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 404

My code lives here: https://github.com/darkcloudi/WebSocketProject

Difference between my app and the example on Oracle is I have split it as two projects one service and the other webapp.

I cannot figure out why I would be getting a 404 as the service .war file is called WebsocketHome. Any ideas what would be causing this issue? Usually a 404 is not found so guessing it cannot finding the service , i'm sure i'm doing something stupid but cannot figure out where the problem is

Thanks

I also had the same problem. Try removing the unwanted jars which contains websocket in your $JAVA_HOME/lib folder. and then add only what you are importing in serverendpoint file.

The Error during the handshake happens, because Tomcat has its own api for websockets. Thus you might have added the JSR implementation or something similar as javax.websocket-api in your pom.xml there comes a conflict at runtime.

Try to not export your Websocket-library to your webserver, thus it uses its own implementation.

If you use maven, set the websocket dependency as provided:

<!-- Provided Websocket API, because tomcat has its own implementation -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.websocket</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.websocket-api</artifactId>
    <version>1.1</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
