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

Hi Everyone,

I have written a JSP/Servlet code in Eclipse and using JBoss to run it. But when i run the project on the server i get the following error. I have done some Google but haven't found anything of use:

HTTP Status 500 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

type: Exception report

message:

description: The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception:

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

Could you please tell me what could be wrong. I have learnt that there must be something wrong with my JSP files. But I couldn't find out what's wrong! Please help.

Hi,

Can you give us the JSP code so that we can check for the error.?

I have two jsp's in the the project

Login.jsp

HomePage.jsp

Its just a rough draft. But the thing is the Servlet-JSP code isn't working.

I have tested these 2 jsp's on tomcat and they are working with out any error.

Wow! That's wierd!!! Could it it be because of the servlet code?

you can also verify the generated .java files for this JSP so that you can find what;s the line that is causing this error.

Could you please tell me how to do that?
