Answer 1

That error means you are mixing Jersey 1.x and 2.x. Both are totally incompatible, make sure that all your dependencies are of the same version.

com.sun.jersey

is for Jersey 1.x. It should not be used.

org.glassfish.jersey

is Jersey 2.x and should be used whenever possible.

Answer 2

I see one issue in your code

@Path("/") <--- here
public class Cliente {

    @GET
    @Path("/cliente")

As per your code, the url to access getNome method would be

http://localhost:8080/FerpaWS/ws//cliente

But, you are accessing

 http://localhost:8080/FerpaWS/ws/cliente

So, either you removed @Path("/") or name something @Path("/app"). So, finally url would be

http://localhost:8080/FerpaWS/ws/app/cliente
