The problem is that whenever I try to produce response of media type anything other than JSON, I get "MessageBodyWriter" not found error. But the response works fine for Application_JSON outputs. I am using several dependencies in my Maven POM so maybe MessageBodyWriter is getting overridden or maybe only for JSON its included.
Here are the pom dependencies -

The sample Java class I am using is -
package com.va;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import org.glassfish.jersey.server.mvc.Viewable;
@Path("orders")
public class OrderView{
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
public Viewable index() {
return new Viewable("index");
}
}
Also I have kept my index.htm file in webapp folder. The config for web.xml is as -
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>jersey.config.server.provider.packages</param-name>

<param-value>/(webapp)/.*</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
On accessing the URL localhost:8080/myapp/orders I get HTTP 500 error and console error as
org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.WriterInterceptorExecutor$TerminalWriterInterceptor aroundWriteTo
SEVERE: MessageBodyWriter not found for media type=text/html, type=class org.glassfish.jersey.server.mvc.Viewable, genericType=class org.glassfish.jersey.server.mvc.Viewable.
Please guide me with what is the issue. Thanks in advance.:)
