I'm only a beginner. I have this project that I was working on a training course. It was set up on Eclipse and it was working. I'm now trying to get this same code working using IntelliJ Ultimate and I cannot any rest response. I'm probably doing something wrong but I have no clue what it could be as I do not understand much when it comes setting things up. I tried both browser and Postman and I get error 404. I also tried to set a breakpoint to the code and it does not get activated. I created a new project, chose Web Aplication and RESTful web services from additional Libraries and Frameworks. I also added Maven framework. I have installed JDK 1.8 and Tomcat 9.
Below is my maven BOM. I'm not sure if all is correct:

@GET
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public List<FoodGroup> getFoodGroups()
{
List<FoodGroup> listOfFoodGroups = foodGroupService.getAllFoodGroups();
return listOfFoodGroups;
}
}I tried to use this on postman "localhost:8080/rest/foodgroups" This gives me a 404 as below:

EDIT:
Thanks to the link provided by CrazyCoder I have manged to get my REST services to work. Like "localhost:8080/helloworld" works just fine and so some other links to some of my services work fine as well when I tested them through Postman. The only thing I'm struggling now is to get the index.html to come up.
I have tried pretty much every combination in my browser I can think of with no joy:
http://localhost:8080/
http://localhost:8080/index.html
http://localhost:8080/MyProject/index.html
And it keeps saying that This localhost page can’t be found
Latest screenshot of settings
If someone has an idea of what I could try, please advise. I'm just so close to get it running. Thank you.
