I finally figured out how to resolve this problem once and for all. In my last posting, I mentioned that deleting the JBoss server directory and replacing it with a fresh copy worked for me. I reproduced the problem on anther PC and was able to understand exactly how to resolve this issue.
Eclipse generally uses a JRE and when I added J2SDK1.4.2_03 to the list of "Installed JREs", it automatically adds "\jre" to the directory name. For example, if you set the "JRE Home Directory" to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03, the path Eclipse will use is C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\jre\lib. If this is the case, tools.jar is not added to the system libraries to use. To add tools.jar, perform the following steps: - In Eclipse, select "Preferences" from the "Window" menu. - Expand "Java" from the tree and select "Installed JREs". - Select the JRE you are using and click the "Edit" button. - In the "Edit JRE" dialogue (yeah, I'm Canadian, we spell it like this), uncheck "Use default system libraries". - Click on the "Add External JARs..." button and open tools.jar from your SDK directory. This will add the tools.jar file to the system libraries to use. Once you redeploy your ear and view the jsp page, JBoss will now be able to compile the jsp because it has access to tools.jar. I hope this posting is able to help the people having this issue because it sure caused me a lot of headaches. -- Steven Ercolani View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3856721#3856721 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3856721 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
