Since you didn't provide a fully qualified class name, Tomcat defaulted to
looking in the current directory, relative to /examples. So it was looking
for jsp/dates/DbWriter.class. Where are you keeping your class? Is it in
the classpath?

Subject: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for

Hi,
I have a simple server-side java class named DBWriter (with no package
name)
I am using it in a jsp file like this

as I told earlier the class I am using is not residing in any package,
while
tomcat is trying to find it in jsp.dates package.
How do I get around this problem ? Is this a bug since I see similar kinds
of problems reported on the mailing list archieve
your help is appriciated,
Mandar
