Jon,
Thanks for your help. The uribase and uriroot were not set correctly.
Here is the final version that I got working. I had one additional twist
that
I needed to copy the JSP files to another location first using the ant
<copy>
task.
I set uriroot to the webapps root {dir}/html, and then jasper2
automatically
found the JSP files in the subdirectories under jsp/** and correctly
resolved
the references "/jsp/**.jsp" inside the JSP files.
Once it works, it's great. But it several hours of frustration because
tomcat4.x jasper often just print NullPointerExceptions instead of an
error message. So you have to guess what is wrong.
