The JSTL Expression for bean method used in jsp file works for Tomcat v7, but fails in JBoss.

[Sandeep Gabhale]

Hi All,

Below is the JSP file code which works fine in Tomcat v7, but fails in JBoss 5.1.0 server.
The method

getContactBridge

for which it gives error!
I've also added the jstl.jar, jsp-api, servlet-api and ojdbc6.jar.

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ page import="com.nucleus.dao.*,java.util.*" errorPage="ErrorPage.jsp" %> 
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

<c:set var="cfgType" value="${param.cfgtype}" />
<c:set var="clientId" value="${param.clientId}" />
<%-- The config area type is <b> <c:out value="${cfgType}" /> </b> --%>
<div id = "divddlCfgAreaType">
	<select id="ddlCfgAreaType" name="ddlCfgAreaType" style="width:380px">
		<option value="-1">--Select--</option> 
			<c:if test="${cfgType == 'CONTACT_BRIDGE'}">
				<jsp:useBean id="cbData" class="com.nucleus.dao.ContactBridge" scope="request">
					<jsp:setProperty name="cbData" property="client" value="${clientId}" />
					<c:set var="cbMap" value="${cbData.getContactBridge()}" />
						<c:forEach items="${cbMap}" var="map">
							<option value="${map.key}"> ${map.value} </option>
						</c:forEach>
				</jsp:useBean>				
			</c:if>
			<c:if test="${cfgType == 'TEAM_CONFIG'}">
				<jsp:useBean id="teamData" class="com.nucleus.dao.TeamData" scope="request">
					<jsp:setProperty name="teamData" property="client" value="${clientId}" />
					<c:set var="teamMap" value="${teamData.getTeamId()}" />
						<c:forEach items="${teamMap}" var="map">
							<option value="${map.key}"> ${map.value} </option>
						</c:forEach>
				</jsp:useBean>				
			</c:if>
			<c:if test="${cfgType == 'PLAN_ELIG'}">				
				<jsp:useBean id="planData" class="com.nucleus.dao.PlanData" scope="request">
					<jsp:setProperty name="planData" property="client" value="${clientId}" />
					<c:set var="planMap" value="${planData.getPlanId()}" />
						<c:forEach items="${planMap}" var="map">
							<option value="${map.key}"> ${map.value} </option>
						</c:forEach>					
				</jsp:useBean>				
			</c:if>		
	</select>
</div>
	

The error message is

If by this you mean that you have moved or copied jsp-api and servelt-api to WEB-INF/lib, remove them. They will cause nothing but trouble there. The container provides these, not you!

Your right Bear, but even after removing the above mentioned jars didn't helped..

It would be great if you could guide me with the above mention issue.
