jsp:include resource not found

Is there any way to know in JSP,if jsp include files are missed. For example if a file include.jsp is not present and in my jsp if i have include code like this <jsp:include page="include.jsp" />. I can't see any error was thrown.

But if i try the same with <%@ include file="include.jsp" %>, my page is getting failed at compile time. I can understand this, because @include is compile time... So what about jsp:include ?

Any thoughts? thank you ;)

I see the following error on.. Apache tomcat 6.0.16

javax.servlet.ServletException: File "/jsp/myPage.jsp" not found

I have index1.jsp BUT i don't have index22.jsp.... If i give this i can't see any error in logs but only the content missed in the output... i am using Apache Tomcat/6.0.13

I have learned that its a BUG, which has been log here in 2005 https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37326 .. i was wonder they why this has not been fixed for apache 6.0.13 ?

This may help you understand the difference: difference between jsp:include...

<jsp:include page ="something.jsp"> is simply including the thing at run time, you may assume that a separate request-thread is generated and the output of the page is included. so, at this time the container think like a content to be included so, not to throw an exception or error, because of this its attribute name is 'page'. when you using incude directive you are including a file.
