Java Spring Project on a Wildfly Server can't access RESTful Services

Question

I have a java app running a Spring application with RESRful services.

Windows

I have a Windows environment with Eclipse and a JBoss Wildfly server integrated.

The RESful services can be accessed successfully, via e.g. http://localhost:8080/jbosswildfly/category/list.

OSX

I have recently started to migrate this to an OSX environment. I have Eclipse and a Wildfly server installed.

I can access http://localhost:8080/jbosswildfly/ which shows the server welcome page. However, I cannot access the RESTful service, via e.g. http://localhost:8080/jbosswildfly/category/list (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

Question

How do I get the RESTful services to work on in the OSX environment?

More info

As you can see, in the Windows environment, under the jbosswildfly server, there is a spring-web-4.3.1.RELEASE.jar, which is not present in the OSX environment.

In the Windows environment, I created the Java project from scratch, but in the OSX environment, I imported the existing project from an OpenShift Git repository. The source code in the two environments are identical.

The project is built with Maven and has all the required dependencies.

UPDATE

One thing I have noticed is that in the Windows environment, the target folder contains a number of generated artifacts, but in the OSX environment, there is noting in the target folder.

Answer 1

As you notices in your UPDATE, if the target is empty, it is because the project did not compile.

You have to install maven on your OSX.
