Looks like your bean ID is thbean not thebean. It is missing "e" in the "the". Could that be the problem?

Probably not the right place to ask this but not sure there where else so here it is. Now that all my clients have upgraded to tomcat 6.0.18 (from various rather old versions) i am starting to write any new webapps using jsp 2.1 including Unified EL but i am even already running into a stupid problem and can only assume i am doing something wrong or otherwise nobody would be using tomcat in the first place. Below is a small snippet of code to illustrate: A javabean: package a.pkg; class ABean { public String getString() { return "Hello world!"; } } A jsp page: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] contentType="text/html"%> <[EMAIL PROTECTED] pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> <jsp:useBean id="thbean" class="a.pkg.ABean" scope="session"> <jsp:setProperty name="thebean" property="*"/> </jsp:useBean> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title>A title.</title> </head> <body> <p>The string is: ${sessionScope.thebean.string}</p> <BR><BR>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 3486 (20081001) __________<BR><BR>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<BR><BR><A HREF="http://www.eset.com";>http://www.eset.com</A><BR> <BR><BR>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 3486 (20081001) __________<BR><BR>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<BR><BR><A HREF="http://www.eset.com";>http://www.eset.com</A><BR> </body> </html> All the tutorials and samples and such i can find on the net suggest the output from this should be: The string is: Hello world! but i get: The string is: ${sessionScope.thebean.string} I just cant find anything on the net to suggest why this would happen but plenty to say it should work. Has anybody got any ideas where i am going wrong? Am doing this in linux using tomcat 6.0.18 and openjdk 1.6.0.
