I can't seem to find where the log entries are for this problem. The logs that are under ...\Tomcat 6.0\logs don't have any entries for this problem. I'm thinking that maybe, since I launched the Tomcat from eclipse, that it changed the log location. (But I don't know where it is)
Both the class file and the java file exist in the specified folder. I even deleted them and they were re-created by the application server. I gave full permissions to Everyone for the directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\work This actually fixed a previous problem I had with a compilation problem. I'm thinking that it's some variable that I didn't set but the installation didn't ask for anything like this and the example jsp applications work fine.

When you say the class file exists, do you mean there is both hello_jsp.java and hello_jsp.class? Or is the .class file missing. Lastly, are you sure the user tomcat is running as has read privilege to the file? --David John Byrne wrote: > Hello all, > > > > I was wondering whether any of you could help me out with a problem I'm > having.
