Hey guys,

I'm new here. Been reading Core Servlets and JSP by Marty Hall. It's a great book :)

I just got to the second part where you start learning about JSP, so I know a lot 
about Servlets now.

I've come off of servlets compiling my files from 
localhost//servlet/coreservlets.[servlet]

I've tried running my first JSP file and I get this error:

Error: 500
Location: /expressions.jsp
sun/tools/javac/Main

Since this is a 500 status code, and the error has to do with the Main method, I 
thought the CLASSPATH wasn't set properly, but it is.

c:\jakarta-tomcat\lib\jasper.jar

This is really a trivial problem, but I can't get started on JSP, so if anyone can 
help, I'd appreciate it.

I'm using Tomcat 3.1 on Windows 2000.
