Hey Larry,
Finally a refresh click brought a smile on my face :-)
Yeah, it is one of those scenarios where people want backward support as
against to moving forward.
One thing that I dont understand is that the UIs are working very well. In
fact I am able to change the password (that is when these exceptions are
thrown) and is updated as well. Then why this backend exception. Any thoughts
here?
Also, there is a forward that is called before the "include" as you pointed
out. Do you have any ideas on what tweaking I can try?
Thanks again for your reply.

Sid,
The code where the exception is occurring is:
private final String getAbsolutePathRelativeToContext(String relativeUrlPath) {
String path = relativeUrlPath;
if (!path.startsWith("/")) {
String uri = (String)
request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.include.servlet_path");
if (uri == null)
uri = ((HttpServletRequest) request).getServletPath();
401 String baseURI = uri.substring(0, uri.lastIndexOf('/'));
path = baseURI+'/'+path;
}
return path;
}
The code is trying to convert the "weblmpagetop.jsp" relative
path to a path from the root of the webapp. What Jasper has to
work with to establish where "weblmpagetop.jsp" is located is
failing the "uri.lastIndexOf('/')". This suggests the problem
is related to the "forwards" that are occurring prior to reaching
the "include". Perhaps there is something that needs to start with
a '/' that doesn't.
I can't say that this isn't due to a quirk, bug, or spec ambiguity,
as opposed the webapp doing something wrong with respect to
the Servlet 2.2 spec. It sounds like you are stuck with 3.3.1
as is. Hopefully a reasonable workaround can be found.
Cheers,
Larry
