Answer 1

The other answers didn't work for me, but I finally got it to work with JSON.

I was using the jersey-bundle-1.17.jar (also tried with the asm-3.1.jar and jersey-json-1.17.jar added to classpath and still didn't work). I finally tried downloading the zip that includes 12 different jars. Once I added all 12 jars to my classpath I finally got rid of the error and works great returning JSON.

I hope this helps somebody.

Update: Here is a link to the zip file that contains the 12 jar files: jersey-archive-1.17.zip

Another Update for Maven Users: Add the following to your pom.xml to get the 12 jars individually:
