It is a plain Java issue: you should learn the difference between "inner" classes and "static inner" classes. Look somewhere for details. Here, replace this line > private class Test { with private static class Test { and you will be fine. An alternative solution would be to replace static field with an instance one, > static Test test = new Test("foobar"); Test test = new Test("foobar"); but that depends on what your intentions are. Note, that because JSP page is a servlet, the same instance will be reused for all requests, so there is no much difference between static and instance field here.
