I was really hoping that there would be something tomcat related in the WEB-INF\lib folder but nothing, they are all marked as provided in the pom file.
There was a mistake in my original post, in tomcat 8.0.23 my application does not work with jdk's 1.7.0_09 or 1.8.0_11 so basically it doesnt work at all in 8.023 with or without the ## in the war file name. It seems like tomcat is just unable to compile jsp files in this version. Is there anything else I can check or do? I have seen some people say they edited the conf/web.xml for the jsp servlet entry, I tried setting the params to 1.7 for compilerSourceVM and compilerTargetVM but this had no effect. I am pretty stuck as the tomcat page http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html seems to imply everything is compatible?? On Mon, July 6, 2015 1:44 am, Felix Schumacher wrote: > Am 4.
