JSP's not compiling

This is actually not a bug report, but a possible way to fix a problem users 
might experience. 

I am unable to compile my JSP! 
Are you seeing this? 
      org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile
      class for JSP

      An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null

      Generated servlet error:
          [javac] Since fork is true, ignoring compiler
      setting.
          [javac] Compiling 1 source file
         [javac] Since fork is true, ignoring compiler
      setting.


Like others, I have downloaded and installed the latest Java and Tomcat. 
Installed Java and it was running fine. Installed Tomcat (multiple tries) with 
no success. I followed all the comments I could find. The environment 
variables, tricks, with the NT service and without, but I kept getting the 
compile error message, until...

During the Tomcat install there is a pop-up message toward the end that talks 
about testing, the port 8080, user admin, password blank. During every attempt 
to install Tomcat, I had always put a password in. This last time, I tried it 
without a password and it worked.

If you have questions send me an e-mail dlovvorn@rtkl.com
