Reload != (Start + Stop). It is a more lightweight operation than stopping and then starting a webapp. Maybe something went wrong there. 2. You have not cleared the work directory of the ROOT webapp. So there might be previous compiled classes for those JSPs. Depending on timestamps they will be not recompiled. (E.g. if you replace a jsp with an older copy of that jsp, it will not be recompiled. Check whether the clock on the server has the correct time. Thought it is easier to just clean the work directory for the webapp.) The resource id for that "The value for the useBean class" message is "jsp.error.invalid.bean". It is thrown is in jasper.compiler.Generator#visit() when it visits <jsp:useBean> node if it cannot load the class specified in the useBean tag. http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/tc5.5.x/tags/TOMCAT_5_5_35/jasper/src/share/org/apache/jasper/compiler/Generator.java?view=markup#l1199 You have to check that you did not forget to copy necessary supporting classes and libraries. If that fails, try to write a simple jsp that explicitly loads that class. > The same excersise on the VPS running CPanel for a domain like etrust.us > does only work for etrust.us/Test-03/prg1.jsp > When trying etrust.us/prg1.jsp it only works until trying > etrust.us/subdir/prg2.jsp, > then i get the error 500: JasperException: The value for the useBean class > ___ attribute is invalid > > Log file shows no more details about the issue. > > As "main directory" I mean the docBase referenced in the server.xml file. > I have read the Servlet Specificacion (2.4) and did several changes to the > configuration files with no success. > > Does someone here have any idea where to check some configuration ? > > > El 18/04/2012 12:08 p.m., Konstantin Kolinko escribió: >> >> 2012/4/18 Chris Patterson<tom...@vittox.com>: >>> >>> More on this, now I think it is some configuration issue for the tomcat >>> server: >>> >>> I am using eclipse to check both JSP files, and they work without any >>> problems >>> in my PC.
