Simple? JSP script

[brogers]

I have a jar file and a JSP script that references it.

The jar file contains a class "fortune.Fortune" but when I try the import directive "<%@ page import="fortune.Forutne" %>" i get the error message:

"Only a type can be imported. fortune.Forutne resolves to a package"

I have tried several places to put the fortune.jar file:

* $JBOSS_HOME/sever/all/lib
* $JBOSS_HOME/sever/all/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/ROOT.war/WEB-INF/lib
* $JBOSS_HOME/sever/all/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/ROOT.war/
* $JBOSS_HOME/sever/all/server/lib
* same directory as my jsp file

Each to no avail.

Question:
1. Where should I place the fortune.jar file
2. Is there a config file I need to update to reference this jar file?

Usually, I package my JSPs and jars in a war file and place the war file in server/all/deploy. My war file contents look like:

myapp.war:
./index.jsp
./WEB-INF/web.xml
./WEB-INF/lib/some.jar

index.jsp references classes in some.jar

What are the contents of your jar file? Run "jar -tf yourjarfile.jar" and post the results.

Is there any chance it's because you have a typo in the second "Forutne" in your import? Your post does; don't know if the jsp does. Maybe the error message is bogus.

I did have a typo in the import statement

I corrected it an was able to run the script.

Thank You
