Error while running a JSP from JBoss??

shitalv Oct 3, 2002 1:55 PM

I have installed JBoss with its own webserver V3.0.3. I created a web module called emailApp.war with following structure

emailApp.war
- sendEmail.jsp
- emailForm.jsp
- index.html
WEB-INF
- web.xml
classes
- SendEmail.class
lib

When I go to the browser and try to access the JSP I get following error:

Warning: Exception for /emailApp/emailForm.jsp java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/tools/javac/Main ar org.apache.jasper.compiler.SunJavaCompiler.compile(SunJavaCompiler.java:136) .............

Can anyone tell what to do to fix the problem..

Thx

Sounds like you haven't set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. This should point to the install location of your JDK - e.g. d:\j2sdk1.4.1

When you start JBoss up, either thru run.bat or run.sh (depending upon whether you're on Windows or something else), one of the things it'll do is use JAVA_HOME to add the tools.jar library to the application classpath. This contains the Java compiler classes, including sun.tools.javac.Main
