The problem as you no doubt know is that the jsp compile is not finding MechanicBean.class. You need to make sure that MechanicBean is in a package as otherwise the jsp compiler will look for classes in the default package which for the jsp compiler is org.apache.jsp. Just add (I'll use your email address for uniqueness) package com.hotmail.ttum; to the top of the MechanicBean.java file and then in the jsp file go for com.hotmail.ttum.MechanicBean Make sure that MechanicBean.class is then put in [TomcatRoot]\webapps\[your webapp]\WEB-INF\classes\com\hotmail\ttum\ Hope this helps

I saw your posted message on Tomcat-User list. I have already subscribed to the list but I don't know how to post the message. Would you please suggest me? I also have one critical problem with my JSP project that I would appreciate to have an idea from you. I'm trying to solve this problem for my JSP project for many days. I'm using Tomcat 4.0.3 and jdk1.3.1. Everything I set for PATH or symtem variables are working fine with Servlet. The application I am developing is to use JSP with JavaBeans. I use the bean class called MechanicBean and use MechanicInfo.jsp to instantiate the bean class with this tag, <?xml:namespace prefix = jsp /> However, after running the program, the error shown in the browser as type: Exception report message: Internal Server Error description: The server encountered an internal error (Internal Server Error) that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP An error occured at line 9 in the jsp file: /MechanicInfo.jsp Generated servlet error: D:\tomcat4\work\localhost\Mechanic\MechanicInfo$jsp.jsp.java:60: Class org.apache.jsp.MechanicBean not found. ....... ....... I was wondering what is the source of the problem. I have already defined the compiled bean class to use. Is this the problem of Tomcat 4.0.3 or the application itself? How to solve this problem? I would very much appreciate your suggestion. Thank you.
