Problem parsing taglib

[Renee Petris]

I'm trying to run a very simple Hello World example. My jsp contains only:
<%@ page language="java" %>
<!--Import the taglib --><%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
<!--Now use the tag to display the message --><bean:message key="hello.message" />
When I try to open the page, I get the following exception:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to open taglibrary /WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld : Parse Error in the tag library descriptor: Character conversion error: "Unconvertible UTF-8 character beginning with 0xb4" (line number may be too low).
