Error compiling JSP's Tomcat 5.0.27 2sdk1.4

[Anthony Colebourne]

Hi,
exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
org.apache.jasper.JspCompilationContext.compile(JspCompilationContext.java:520)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:295)

        javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)
Above is the error message.
I'm running Debian Linux and have a working Java installation Here is my
start up command.
jsvc.exec -user tomcat -home /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun
-Dcatalina.home=/usr/lib/jakarta-tomcat-5
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp -outfile
/usr/lib/jakarta-tomcat-5/logs/catalina.out
-errfile &1
-cp
/usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun/lib/tools.jar:/usr/lib/jakarta-tomcat-5/bin/commons-daemon.jar:/usr/lib/jakarta-tomcat-5/bin/bootstrap.jar 

org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap
I have done the following
1) Set the Classpath on the commandline
2) Also copied tools.jar to common/lib in Catalina home, and set
permission the same as the other jars
3) checked the permissions on the work directory
Looking in the work directory, the .java version of the JSP is not there
so it seems to be failing here.
Thanks,
Anthony.
