apache - java.lang.IllegalAccessError while trying to test a jersey REST webservice deployed on TomEE

Question

I have a Jersey-based REST webservice which is working fine when deployed on Glassfish. When I deploy the same war file on Apache TomEE+ 1.6 version, i get the exception

java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method com.sun.jersey.core.reflection.ReflectionHelper.getContextClassLoader()Ljava/lang/ClassLoader; from class com.sun.jersey.spi.scanning.AnnotationScannerListener

I tried using WebProfile and JAX RS version of TomEE also, but same issue.
