How to make swagger working with jersey2 and JAX-RS on tomcat 7 - spring

Question

I am trying to use swagger in order to document my Rest APIs. I use following link to setup with jersey2 and JAX-RS on tomcat
https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-core/wiki/Swagger-Core-Jersey-2.X-Project-Setup-1.5
But I could not access either /swagger.json or /api-docs. Its responding with 404.
What am I doing wrong? Is there a workable documentation? Please help....

Probably you can try to better boil down, which part of the documentation is not yet working in your case.
For me, I used Jersey 2.5.1, and swagger-jersey2-jaxrs_2.10 v. 1.3.4.
I went with the solution to initialize Swagger by a bootstrap class which I included in my web.xml.
bootstrap class
public class SwaggerBootstrap extends HttpServlet {
#Override public void init(ServletConfig servletConfig) {
try {
ServletContext sc = servletConfig.getServletContext();
//as of servlet api 2.5
String ctxPath = sc.getContextPath();
String apiversion = "your-api-version";
String hostname = "your-hostname";
ConfigFactory.config().setBasePath("http://"+hostname+":8080"+ctxPath);
ConfigFactory.config().setApiPath("http://"+hostname+":8080"+ctxPath);
ConfigFactory.config().setApiVersion(apiversion);
ConfigFactory.config().setSwaggerVersion(com.wordnik.swagger.core.SwaggerSpec.version());
System.out.println("Swagger:");
System.out.println("api hostname:"+hostname);
System.out.println("context path:"+ctxPath);
System.out.println("api-version:"+apiversion);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println("Failed to configure swagger");
}
}
web.xml
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Jersey Web Application</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>jersey.config.server.provider.packages</param-name>
<param-value>com.wordnik.swagger.jersey.listing</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JerseyJaxrsConfig</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.wordnik.swagger.jersey.config.JerseyJaxrsConfig</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>SwaggerBootstrap</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>my.package.swagger.SwaggerBootstrap</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
Hope that helps.
