Thanks

You must create WAR file and your JSP file must be a part of it. Use ANT or your IDE for creating the WAR file.

No you don't HAVE to creat a WAR file - for just experimenting, all you have to do is put the JSP in a web application directory that knows how to run JSP.
IS NOT a web application directory - webapps\ROOT is the default web application directory. It already has a WEB-INF, etc -

I'm having a similar issue wtih Tomcat 5.0.27 compiling JSPs. I have my JSPs under a different directory and pointing the docBase tag in fragment context xml to this directory.
My current running application on Tomcat 4 uses JSP 1.1 version. Looks like Tomcat 5 is not compiling my useBean tags and custom tag libs properly. Any idea if any refactoring of the JSP code is required to migrate to JSP 2 version?
Following is the error I get

TC four was more forgiving if you try to use a non-bean tag with the useBean tag.
A Boolean is not a bean.
Try using "type=.." in your useBean tags instead of "class=".
Better yet, only use classes that comply with the definition of a javabean with jsp:useBean.

Thanks a lot. Problem with useBean is solved now. But, JSP custom tags are still giving me hard time. I have a tag with zero parameters like this:
When I saw the source Tomcat 4 & 5 generated I saw the following difference.
In tomcat 4 :
In tomcat 5:
Can anyone help me why it's different?
Here is the error message I get:

I found the problem. The problem was with Tomcat 5 tag pooling feature which will be turned on by default, because of which custom tag library tags are parsed in a different order than regular.
In order to turn off tag pooling in Tomcat 5, add the following in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml, locate the
servlet, and add:
