WAS 6 in RAD does not load struts tld

[Jehan Jaleel]

Hi all,
I all have a web project that is using struts. I tried to deploy it in my WAS 6 running in RAD, and I get the following error.....

[4/25/08 16:30:41:702 EDT] 00000020 jsp E com.ibm.ws.jsp.taglib.TldParser logParseErrorMessage Failed to parse Tag Library [/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld]: JSPG0235E: The JSP container failed to load the TagExtraInfo class [org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.IterateTei]

Anyone know what is wrong? These tlds are all there in my WEB-INF folder. I also have the sturts jars in the Build path of my project.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Jehan

Jehan,
If you search this forum, you will find several times this question has been asked. I think this one explains it well.

Hi,
I tried what was suggested but I am still getting the error. All of my struts jars are from the same version. I also have the following in my JSP...

<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-bean" prefix="bean"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-html" prefix="html"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-logic" prefix="logic"%>

Any other suggestions? Do the sturts jars have to server class path or is it enough if they are in the project build path in RAD?

Thanks for any help.

One other thing to check: make sure that you do not tell RAD that it's a Struts project. In the RAD tooling, Struts 1.1 is used, so you don't want that getting mixed up with your Struts 1.3 classes. Another thing you might do is create a separate classloader for the application. WebSphere uses Struts 1.1 for its admin console, so you don't want your application classes being loaded before the server classes.
