I have already jasper.jar in apache tomcat library but still i have to add it in my project library folder otherwise giving following error.

This sounds odd. That error happens if you have more than one copy of a jar file in the classpath. You should definitely not copy any of Tomcat's jar files into your web app's WEB-INF/lib directory (assuming that's what you mean by "project library folder"), or you will likely see that error.

[Bear Bibeault]

What else have you copied into your WEB-INF/lib. Once you start putting things into there that do no leg long there, all manner of weird and mystifying errors will ensue. Did you copy the servlet and asp jars? Did you copy anything else from tomcat there?

You should only be putting 3rd-party jars into WEB-INF/lib, never anything from Tomcat or any other servlet container.
