Bug 33594: ClassCastException compiling jsp (very infrequently happens)

["Harper, Brad" <br...@epsiia.com>]

Hello:

A problem just surfaced for us, which I've run down to this issue
[https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33594].  In our
case, the problem presents when deploying the latest version of a webapp
on Tomcat 5.5.9.

The app was modified [including changes to the subject jsp] and tested
successfully with Tomcat 5.5.23 [JDK 1.5.0_07].

I see that the Status of the subject issue is RESOLVED, with the
Resolution set to INVALID [meaning 'not a bug'].

It seems that a failure occurring unpredictably [no matter how
infrequently] is a bug; and calling it INVALID suggests that the system
is somehow being mis-used -- but without providing any specifics.

And re-starting Tomcat pre-emptively doesn't seem to be a good permanent
"fix", nor does it even solve our problem as it is occurring presently.

Can anyone comment on the resolution, a solution, or even a work-around?

[Organizational/operational issues prevent timely migration to Tomcat
5.5.23 at the customer site.]

Thanks.

you can always reopen a bug, but what I would do, is turn on debugging 
for the org.apache.jasper package,
and when the error happens, the bug might lead us to more information.

This bug report was incorrectly filed against httpd over three years
ago, closed immediately, and then reassigned to Tomcat *without* being
reopened, so it's highly unlikely anyone has looked at it since then.

It's doubtful there will be any action on it now, especially if the
problem is not reproducible on a current level.  (5.5.9 is also over
three years old, so there's not really any excuse for not having moved
up sometime in that period.)  

You can browse Tomcat's change log, but a lot of code has gone in over
the last three years:
