unrealted reason ant the tags worked.  Try restarting your server.

Subject: tag not working


I've been following a tutorial:
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/04/19/tomcat.html

My problem begins with the section "Adding Tag Libraries".
I'm using Tomcat 3.3m3 and Windows 2000.

I have the taglib.tld in the /WEB-INF/lib directory and
the HelloTag.class in the /WEB-INF/lib/com/onjava directory.

I've modified my welcome.jsp to include
<%@ taglib uri="/onjava" prefix="onjava" %>
at the top and use the <onjava:hello /> tag
further down the page. When I try to bring up
this page, I get the following error:

Error: 500
Location: /onjava/welcome.jsp
Internal Servlet Error:

org.apache.jasper.compiler.CompileException:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-3.3-m3\webapps\onjava\welcome.jsp(11,11) Unable to load
class com.onjava.HelloTag

These are only the first four lines of it.
I've done some testing and it seems I only
get this error when I have my <onjava:hello />
tag in there (in my welcome.jsp). That is,
if I simply have the

<%@ taglib uri="/onjava" prefix="onjava" %>

directive at the top, and leave out the
<onjava:hello />, The page comes up fine
(except that it doesn't print what would've
been printed by the tag of course). Once
I put the <onjava:hello /> back in, I get
the error.

Can anyone who has done this example or who
knows what I'm talking about help me?

Thanks in advance!
-alex
