Unable to compile class for JSP - the import cannot be resolved
I'm getting the following error:
15:15:31,800 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[default-host].[/Horizon].[jsp]] Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:

In proc_005define_005rules_jsp.java, I see:
import my.company.product.app.event.action.ActionEmail;
import my.company.product.app.event.action.ActionRfc;
In proc_define_rules.jsp, I have:
<%@ page import="my.company.product.app.event.action.ActionEmail" %>
<%@ page import="my.company.product.app.event.action.ActionRfc" %>
Other facts:
* Both ActionEmail and ActionRfc classes extend an abstract class my.company.product.app.event.Action.
* The Action class implements java.lang.Comparable
* The JSP is in a WAR file
* The Action* classes are in a JAR file
* Both the WAR and JAR files are in an EAR
* I have lots of other JSPs in the WAR file that successfully import classes in the JAR file
* In fact, proc_define_rules.jsp successfully imports other classes located in the JAR file
I tried importing my.company.product.app.event.Action but that didn't help.
I also found a post that might be related (https://community.jboss.org/thread/167049?start=0&tstart=0). The root cause has to do w/ case. Seeing that my package name for ActionEmail and ActionRfc is also the name of a class (however uppercase), it may be the same thing. However,
1. that person was using JBoss 5 and the solution provided was noted not to work/apply in JBoss 6
2. no solution for JBoss 6 was documented
3. I can't find a similar post re: JBoss 7
4. I tried the JBoss 5 solution in JBoss 7 and it didn't work (but I didn't really expect it to)
Any ideas? I would hate to think I have to rename my class.
