Martin, I believe you're hitting two entirely different bugs, one in Resin and one in Tomcat. The Resin issue is, I believe, a known bug in 2.0.5; my impression was that there is a later release that addresses the issue. Tomcat 4.0.3 indeed looks like it fails to sense TLD files automatically.
I believe Tomcat 4.0.4B2 (the most recent milestone release for Tomcat) addresses this issue, so I think upgrading is the solution in both cases. Or, if you want to use Tomcat 4.0.3, you should be able to do so by modifying web.xml to refer to the tag libraries explicitly. -- Shawn Bayern "JSP Standard Tag Library" http://www.jstlbook.com (coming this summer from Manning Publications) On Sun, 21 Apr 2002, Martin Cooper wrote: > So I have two puzzles now. > > I've been using JSTL (Beta 2) with Resin 2.0.5.
