Here is an example of an error I am getting where the
class GlobalUtilsBean is
being referenced from my jsp page:
******************************************************
/usr/local/tomcat/work/Standalone/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/jsppages/ShoppingCatalog_jsp.java:83:
cannot
resolve symbol
symbol : class GlobalUtilsBean
location: class org.apache.jsp.ShoppingCatalog_jsp
GlobalUtilsBean globalUtilsBean = null;
^
An error occurred at line: 8 in the jsp file: /ShoppingCatalog.jsp
Generated servlet error:
/usr/local/tomcat/work/Standalone/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx/jsppages/ShoppingCatalog_jsp.java:85:
cannot
resolve symbol
symbol : class GlobalUtilsBean
location: class org.apache.jsp.ShoppingCatalog_jsp
globalUtilsBean =
(GlobalUtilsBean) pageContext.getAttribute("globalUtilsBean",
PageContext.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
^
*******************************************************
and the jsp code where I reference it is:
<jsp:useBean
id="globalUtilsBean" class="GlobalUtilsBean" scope="application">
<%
globalUtilsBean.init();
%>
</jsp:useBean>
the GlobalUtilsBean.class resides in
tomcathome/webapps/jsppages/WEB-INF/classes/GlobalUtilsBean.class
I am porting this application from tomcat 3.2 (i know really
old) but the jsp works fine there so I would think that wouldn't be the
problem. There is no restriction where you have
to put stuff in a package is there?
