Before the forward call you should not write anything to the response object. If you will write anything to response object and then you will forward to some other URL then you will always get the error.

Obviously I'm missing some important detail about the mechanics of using <jsp:include>. I've got a JSP with nothing in it but a "<html><jsp:include>,,,</jsp:include></html>". The "page" for the <jsp:include> is a direct call to my servlet. The only thing my servlet does is a sendRedirect() to another page. When I request my JSP, I get back just "<html></html>", which means the redirect failed, the <jsp:include> did nothing, and I didn't get any exceptions (like an IllegalStateException showing the response was already committed). What am I missing about trying to do things this way? BTW, I'm using Tomcat 4.0.3.
