I deployed donow62 Spring MVC app into Tomcat by placing donow62.xml file in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost
The contents of donow62.xml are as follow: <Context docBase="/Users/gibranecastillo/Documents/workspace/CollegeLife/donow62/website" reloadable="true"/> They basically point to the website directory in the spring mvc project in my eclipse workspace. I looked at the Tomcat logs and it says donow62 deployed successfully. In the "Tomcat Web Application Manager" I can see /donow62 listed there. When I clicked on /donow62 it sends me to this URL http://localhost:8080/donow62/ but instead of getting expected result and the web page, I get HTTP Status 500 [see web browser log below] My Spring MVC "donow62" app is using JSTL and it is in the classpath. Using Eclipse on the donow62 project I created User Libraries that reference all the dependencies for donow62. The SERVLET user library has <> el-api.jar - /Library/Tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/lib/el-api.jar <> jasper.jar - /Library/Tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/lib/jasper.jar <> jasper-el.jar - /Library/Tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/lib/jasper-el.jar <> jsp-api.jar - /Library/Tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/lib/jsp-api.jar <> servlet-api.jar - /Library/Tomcat/apache-tomcat-8.0.12/lib/servlet-api.jar <> javax-servlet.jsp.jstl-1.2.1.jar - /Users/gibranecastillo/Documents/java/servlet/javax-servlet.jsp.jstl-1.2.1.jar The exception is basically saying that the donow62 app is missing the JSTL dependency, the jar, any suggestions on how fix this are welcome.
