hi...
i am trying to develop a web client using jsp... am using Apache... i tried to run a sample jsp file... the content is as follows...

<HTML>
<BODY>
Hello! The time is now <%= new java.util.Date() %>
</BODY>
</HTML>

but even this simple file is not executing properly... the output displays only "Hello! The time is now " and not the date.. anything inside <% %> is not getting recognized... have similar problem with my other jsp files...

thanks in advance.. a quick reply would help a lot...

Apache is not a JSP engine.

If you've got Tomcat set up correctly it should work without difficulty. There is a Tomcat forum for Tomcat setup questions.

Well of course your web app needs to be properly formed.

thanks a lot for all ur help!!



Please show your appreciation by dropping the use of abbreviations such as "ur" and spelling out the entire word. Thanks.

No, I suggest not doing that. Not only is using the <%! a dangerous habit to get into, it's immaterial to the problem. If the original JSP isn't working (what does that mean, by the way), the suggested JSP isn't going to either.

The above code should work.


The following code is not threadsafe and not recommended.




The Date variable "d" will become a member (aka instance) variable in the converted servlet. if you take the ! mark out, then it becomes a local variable.

hi everybody..
thanks a lot for all YOUR help.. the problem was that i had set the JAVA_HOME variable to my j2sdk1.5.0_06.. guess tomcat does not support this.. after setting it to j2sdk1.4.2_03, the sample.jsp file ran without any problem.. could anybody help me with database connection(mysql) from a jsp file..?? is there any classpath that needs to be set?? any other pre-requisites needed?? tried setting the classpath to my mysql jar file, does not help..
got an error like the one stated below when i ran my jsp file..
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/lang/Signature
