Answer 1

can you try this: http://127.0.0.1:8082/sample instead of http://localhost:8082/sample

Answer 2

I was able to get the answer, it is because in my unix box the previous java jar was running in background and because of that I was getting the old result every time. I killed that background process and checked, now it is working fine. Thank you
