Basic Problem: I am unable to compile jsp's and display them via Tomcat. I am using the Netbeans IDE for web development and webapps that use html files/servlets run just fine. It's when I try to run a jsp that I get an Error 500:
message description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception org.apache.jasper.JasperException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Java compiler available org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.handleJspException(JspServletWrapper.java:585) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:391) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:390) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:334) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:722) root cause java.lang.IllegalStateException: No Java compiler available org.apache.jasper.JspCompilationContext.createCompiler(JspCompilationContext.java:228) org.apache.jasper.JspCompilationContext.compile(JspCompilationContext.java:638) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:357) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:390) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:334) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:722) note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.25 logs. My laptop config is as follows: OS: Arch Linux kernel 3.2.4-1-ARCH Tomcat: 7.0.25 jdk: 7-3 $ java -showversion java version "1.7.0" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-b147) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 21.0-b17, mixed mode) Netbeans: 7.1 I have googled extensively and looked through the logs and I am at a loss. It obviously can't find a compiler but I have one. I have looked through the Netbeans configuration options and don't see anything that looks relevant, but I am a noob to Java so I could easily be missing something.
