Unable to run JSPs

[Gareth Cantrell]

I have been having problems getting tomcat to run JSPs for the last
week.
I have tried with 3.2b4, b5, b6 and now b7... and still get the same
problems:  "cannot load servlet name: jsp"
I'm currently using RH Linux 6.2, with Sun's JDK1.3. I've also tried
this
on NT4, and Win2000 with the same results. Below is the output from the
startup script... below that is the error I get when trying to load
index.jsp.

[jBoss-User] Errors compiling JSP pages

[Gareth Cantrell]

Hi:
I am using jBoss (BETA_PROD_04) and Tomcat 3.2b6, 
with tomcat as an embedded service in jboss.
I have tried configuring without embedded and using 
tomcat 3.2b4 and b5 as well... and i've tried on 
windows and linux... all possible combinations... 
and still get it... :(
However, when using jboss beta 2, and tomcat 3.2b6, 
and deploying the jar and war files separately
in the jboss/deploy and jakarta-tomcat/webapps 
directories respectively, everything works fine...
I'm at a loss here could someone *please* 
help.

When I deploy my .ear file, I get the following 
message:

[EmbeddedTomcat] ContextManager: Adding context 
Ctx( )count = 0, total = 57[EmbeddedTomcat] cannot load servlet 
name: jsp

..and when trying to access the index.jsp page, 
the following is spewed out ..

[EmbeddedTomcat] path="" :jsp: initcount = 0, 
total = 57count = 0, total = 22count = 0, total = 57count = 0, total
