Answer 1

AbstractMethodError are thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method.

uri is an abstract method in UriBuilder, so you need an implementation of this. This method (with String parameter) is from version 2.0 of JAX-RS specification.

You're trying to use JAX-RS 2.0 with Jersey 1.*. Instead, you need to use Jersey 2.* that implements JAX-RS 2.0 and contains an implementation to uri method.

In your pom.xml you may remove these dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-bundle</artifactId>
    <version>1.19</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-server</artifactId>
    <version>1.19</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.sun.jersey</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-core</artifactId>
    <version>1.19</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.ws.rs</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.ws.rs-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.0-m12</version>
</dependency>

And use these dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-server</artifactId>
    <version>2.17</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.containers</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-container-servlet-core</artifactId>
    <version>2.17</version>
</dependency>

Using this, uri method is implemented in JerseyUriBuilder class from jersey-common.

EDIT:

You need to change, in your web.xml, servlet com.sun.jersey.spi.container.servlet.ServletContainer to org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer and init-param from com.sun.jersey.config.property.packages to jersey.config.server.provider.packages
