This might help; I found it in the Tomcat FAQ that comes in the installation:

Q: I am getting a 500 Error, what does it mean?

A: In simple terms, it means that there was some "Internal Server Error" while
processing your request. You need to study carefully the trace at the server
window to find out more about the error.

These errors can occur while translating your jsp source to a servlet. These
are translation-time errors and occur mostly because of some syntax error in
the jsp file or in the generated java file. Please use the error-message at
the server-window for debugging.

Errors can also occur at request-time. Again, the information about specific
problem/exception can be obtained by looking at the server-side trace.

Hi Everyone,
        I am in the process of learning JSP. I am using JSWDK-1.0.1. I was
trying to run a jsp file which uses a bean. I had put the java file and the
class file inside the beans directory of the WEB-INF folder
(JSWDK-1.0.1\examples\WEB-INF\jsp\beans\myfolder) and the JSP page in the
tutorial folder of the jsp folder
(JSWDK-1.0.1\examples\jsp\tutorial\myfolder). I believe this is the way I
have to do this.

I am getting an
"Error: 500
Unable to compile class for JSP @"

I  am not understanding what the error is. Is there any way I can get a
meaningful error message? Can any one tell me how to handle errors like this
generated from the JSP. And do I need to make any log entries for calling a
bean from a JSP page. I am stuck with this and so I am not able to proceed
further.
I am very new to this technology and so I surely believe you people can help
me.

Thanks,
Preedesh.
