resteasy-validator-provider-11 3.0.7.Final validation error

I'm trying to validate the parameters of a method in a RESTful interface below:

---

@Path("

{id}

")
@GET
@Produces(

{ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON })
@Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }

)
public Response getAsset(@Min(value=5,message="

{com.isone.cts.rest.error.message.min}

") @Max(value=50,message="Cannot be greater than 50") @PathParam("id") long assetId);

Implementation of the method:

---

@Override
public Response getAsset(long assetId) {
if (logger.isDebugEnabled())

{ logger.debug(" Received request with ASSERT ID " + assetId); }

Asset asset = new Asset();
try

{ // Some logic }

catch (ServiceException serviceException)

{ logger.error(" Exception occured " + serviceException.getMessage()); throw serviceException; }

return Response.ok(asset).build();
}

---

As soon as I hit the URL http://localhost:8080/rest/services/assets/16 I see an internal server error HTTP Status 500.
I tried loading the validation through XML configuration and removing the interface and directly placing the annotations on the implementation method. In all the cases I saw the same exception. Just to make sure I debugged the issue, and noticed that it was failing on validator.forExecutables() with Method "forExecutables" with signature Ljavax/validation/executable/ExecutableValidator is not applicable on this object. h3.This occurs on line 155 in GeneralValidatorImpl.java inside resteasy-validator-provider-11.jar

Below is a trace of the exception:
