Hi,
I've started using JSTL tags in my JSP. All was good until i needed to
call a remote EJB from a servlet, store the object to a session, and
redirect to a JSP page to display the content of the remote object.
We'll just to clear things, i am able to do this properly using JSP
expressions <%=myVar%>. And i am able to use <c:out value="${myVar}"
/>
on a project which does not have appserv-rt.jar inside it's lib
directory. I'm getting a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
javax.el.ExpressionFactory.newInstance()Ljavax/el/ExpressionFactory;
when i add appserv-rt.jar in my lib. I'm using Tomcat 6.0.18 as my web
server and glassfish as my app server. Below is the complete stack
trace from tomcat:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
