            Bug ID: 55905
           Summary: Error message unhelpful when web.xml references a tld
                    file that doesn't exist
           Product: Tomcat 7
           Version: 7.0.47
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: anthonygerrard+apache....@gmail.com

In your web-application web.xml add a taglib element but get the
taglib-location wrong or forgot to include *.tld when packaging your archive

  <jsp-config>
    <taglib>
        <taglib-uri>http://www.example.org/mytaglib</taglib-uri>
        <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/wrong.tld</taglib-location>
    </taglib>
  </jsp-config>

Start you web-app.

Expected:

Get a helpful message like

WARN  org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig - Failed to process TLD with path
[/WEB-INF/wrong.tld] and URI [http://www.example.org/mytaglib]
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /WEB-INF/wrong.tld
...

Actual:

WARN  org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig - Failed to process TLD with path
[http://www.example.org/mytaglib] and URI [/WEB-INF/wrong.tld]
java.net.MalformedURLException: null
...

Note also that with the current error message the path is labelled at the URI
and vice versa, adding to the confusion.
