JasperException and javax.el.ELException when running under Jetty

I have a struts 2 application which works perfectly on Tomcat 5.5.23 but when
I run it on Jetty 6.1.1 I get the following exception when processing an
OGNL expressions in a jsp page:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/pages/register/info.jsp(45,10)
PWC6038: "#{'FRESHMAN':'Freshman', 'SOPHOMORE':'Sophomore',
'JUNIOR':'Junior', 'SENIOR':'Senior'}" contains invalid expression(s):
javax.el.ELException: Error Parsing: #{'FRESHMAN':'Freshman',
'SOPHOMORE':'Sophomore', 'JUNIOR':'Junior', 'SENIOR':'Senior'}
        at
org.apache.jasper.compiler.DefaultErrorHandler.jspError(DefaultErrorHandler.java:49)
        at
org.apache.jasper.compiler.ErrorDispatcher.dispatch(ErrorDispatcher.java:344)

To me it looks like the JSP processor is trying to parse this expression
which it should not be.  Can anyone please shed any light on this issue?

Phil

I'm using the maven-jetty-plugin and with the command mvn jetty:run-war

Thanks for your quick response.  You gave me the clue I needed!.  OK, so I
had this statements in my jsp:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="%{#{5:''}}" /></td>

which produced the following error message:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException:
/WEB-INF/pages/assessment/questions.jsp(33,20) PWC6038: "%{#{5:''}}"
contains invalid expression(s): javax.el.ELException: Error Parsing:
%{#{5:''}}

I escaped the #{ as follows:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="%{\#{5:''}}" /></td>

but that gave me the error:

tag 'radio', field 'list', name 'responses[1].value': The requested list key
'%{\#{5:''}}' could not be resolved as a
collection/array/map/enumeration/iterator type. Example: people or
people.{name} - [unknown location]

so I changed it to this:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="%{\#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}}" /></td>

and that gave me:

tag 'radio', field 'list', name 'responses[1].value': The requested list key
'%{\#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}}' could not be resolved as a
collection/array/map/enumeration/iterator type. Example: people or
people.{name} - [unknown location]

so another change:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="\#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}" /></td>

which still gives me:

tag 'radio', field 'list', name 'responses[1].value': The requested list key
'\#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}' could not be resolved as a
collection/array/map/enumeration/iterator type. Example: people or
people.{name} - [unknown location]

so yet another change:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="%{#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}}" /></td>

which worked as does:

<td><ww:radio theme="simple" name="responses[%{questionNo}].value"
list="#@java.util.HashMap@{5:''}" /></td>

which also works.  Just to amke sure, I checked that the last change is
backward compatible with Tomcat 5.5.23 (and therefore JSP 2.0).

Although the bug summary may be misleading, I'm guessing it's related to -

https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2213

Basically, Jetty is treating your anonymous map as UEL, when it's
OGNL. You can escape the # like so -

\#{'FRESHMAN':'Freshman', 'SOPHOMORE':'Sophomore', 'JUNIOR':'Junior',
'SENIOR':'Senior'}
