struts-test problem

Hello,

I have deployed the struts-test of 1.0beta to iplanet 6.0 sp2. But at
some of test page I have encountered errors, for example:

[05/Mar/2001 02:33:26:8] error: Exception: SERVLET-compile_failed: Failed in 
compiling template: /struts-vg/bean-include.jsp, javac error:

        ((org.apache.struts.taglib.bean.WriteTag)_JSP__1).setFilter("true");
                                                                    ^
1 error

I wonder if this is an iplanet problem or what...

I couldn't also access the following pages:

<bean:cookie>
<bean:header>
<bean:include>
<bean:resource>
Match Tags

Any idea??

Hello Fred,

         There is a work around. Just follow the directions for JRun on the 
Struts site about modifying the JSP page so it will work.
Basically, do
·       index.jsp, logon.jsp: Change <html:html locale="true"> to
         <html:html locale=<%= true %>>

·       registration.jsp, subscription.jsp: Change all instances of 
filter="true" to
         filter=<%= true %>

Bye, John

This is a bug found in several current servlet containers, apparently
including iPlanet 6.0 sp2.

The "filter" property of the <bean:write> tag is a boolean, rather than
a String.  In such cases, the
container is required to perform the data type conversions specified in
Table 2-4 of the JSP 1.1
specification.  In this particular case, it should convert the string
"true" to a boolean true value, and pass
that instead.

The requirement for this conversion was not clearly spelled out in the
JSP 1.1 specification itself, but it
was clarified in an errata published last April.  See "Issue 7" at:

    http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/errata_1_1_a_042800.html

This bug should be reported to iPlanet's technical support services.
