Maven RESTEasy jboss .war deployment failed

Question

I am self learning the RESTEasy, to be built with Maven and to be deployed in jBoss and later on to integrate it with Jenkins.

Currently I have created a very simple RESTEasy webservice and built it with maven. I've got a .war file and exploded war(which is "unzipped" folder of the war I believe), a 1.0 snapshot folder with WEB-INF and META-INF folders inside of it in my netbeans project target folder.

I've installed jboss 7.x.x in my mac and successfully started and verified it's working on my localhost:8080. I copied my .war file to jboss7.x.x/standalone/deployments folder.

-Ran the server by: sh jboss-7.x.x.Final/bin/standalone.sh
-Got some error such.
-Stopped the jboss, copied the exploded war folder into the standalone/deployments folder and ran the server again.
-Still getting the error.
-What am I missing?
-The error log:

And when I access the http://localhost:8080/HelloRESTEasy-1.0-SNAPSHOT/Hello/justin I got a 404.

That log is not complete and you picked the least important part, but my experience on that suggest that your WAR has resteasy*.jar libs inside it. For jboss 7 your pom.xml at resteasy dependency you must put "<scope>provided</scope>", so when you compile and package that lib will be skipped.
