When you putting an * (asterisk) in the end you need to write an Id or something instead of it like is described in this document . What you are trying to accomplish i guess is more like this

 @RestResource(urlMapping='/helloWorld')

And then make this call

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sessionId"  "https://instance.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/helloWorld"

I tried this iam get same error as "Could not find a match for URL /helloWorld" – Shabbygenteel

Pay attention if you put a final slash after helloWorld/ . Double check spelling pay attention to characters case. Make sure the class compiled and exists in Salesforce (try access it from web interface just to make sure). Finally it should work seems you doing everything right. If still no go, please repost your new code. – Rayleigh
