Is this a servlet problem or a setup problem?

[t pratt]

I'm using websphere v 5.1 and the application is working when I run it on the local test server but when it's runs on the production boxes these errors are showing up. The data is coming from the as 400 and the server is running on a win box. If it matters the application first valid user login information with active directory. Then it check the as 400 for the current employee record and display the data.

The error is list below with the code:

The second errors happen some times but the JSP can't find the theme, images or java scripts for the ErrorMsg.jsp. Example: when I first login I use a invalid password and the ErrorMsg.jsp will display with no errors but when it hit the above error it can't load anything. Why is it calling theme, images and js as servlet?

Thanks for any help or input.

Please be sure to use UBB code tags when posting code to the forums. Unformatted code is extermely hard to read and many people that might be able to help you will just move along. Please read this for more information.

First things first: the error messages seem to indicate that you may have some syntax errors in your JSPs, but I am not familiar with WebSphere error messages,

But before doing anything else, you need to place EmployeeInfoBean in a package other than the default. Once that's done, see what errors remain and we'll tackle those.

[Maki Jav]

Hi,

The class you are importing should have a package in which it exists in order to be imported. In other case, the class is in the same package as the calling class, so you need not use import statement.

Yes, thats the same information that I already posted.

In other case, the class is in the same package as the calling class, so you need not use import statement.

A class can never be in the same package as a JSP so the import is always required in this case.

[Ben Souther]

The specific reasons for this are spelled out in these two FAQ entries.
http://faq.javaranch.com/java/PackageYourBeans
http://faq.javaranch.com/java/BeansNotFound

The same code may be working in one environment but not another if you're using different versions of the JVM in each.
Things tightened up in 1.4.1 (again see the FAQ entry for specifics).

In short, package your beans.

[Raghavan Muthu]

As the other ranchers mentioned , it is mandatory to have your classes (user defined) be it beans, servlets etc., to keep in under a specific and explicit package rather than letting them belong to default package!

That's what this line shows

[5 20 08 14:49:33:353 MST] 17d6cdf5 WebGroup E SRVE0026E: [Servlet Error]-[Unable to compile class for JSP
C:\WebSphere\AppServer\temp\websphere\server1\CCHREAR\CCHR.war\_EmployeeInfo.java:3: '.' expected
import EmployeeInfoBean;
^

Apart from that, there is one more error is shown when the container is trying to load your javascript (.js) file.

[5 20 08 14:49:33:353 MST] 17d6cdf5 WebGroup I SRVE0180I: [CCHR] [ CCHR] [Servlet.LOG]: ErrorMsg.jsp: init

Ensure that the .js file is correctly represented and available to the container with the appropriate directory structure.

Thanks for the suggestion! Putting the beans into a package did not work. The errors did not change. Also tried putting the servlet and bean into different packages.

Should add I using two other beans with this project and these beans are running find.

Therefore, I placed the DBconnpoolbean into the the EmployeeInfo.jsp and it ran fine. Believe the issues is with the code in the EmployeeInfoBean code.

[Hongli Li]

make sure the class load policy is correctly specified. (Parent first or children first)

Did you change the import statement in your JSP accordingly to refer the bean with the correct package?

[t pratt]

Yes, and the errors are the same. This puzzle me because I never had this problem before. I'm going to start over with one jsp and servlet at a time. If I find the problem I'll post it.

[Raghavan Muthu]

It should be working if you have the things in place.

That's great. That way you can find out where you are missing the stuff!
