Answer 1

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:

    javax.websocket
    javax.websocket-api
    1.1
    provided
