Reason for this error is version incompatibility between JSP, Servlet and JSTL.Matching versions are listed below.
- JSP 1.2 , Servlet 2.3 , JSTL 1.0
- JSP 2.0 , Servlet 2.4 , JSTL 1.1
Check the web.xml to see whether it uses the Servlet 2.3 DTD or Servlet 2.4 Schema.
If it uses Servlet 2.3 DTD, it will have the following text.
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
</web-app>
For Servlet 2.4 Schema, it will look like below.
<web-app version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
</web-app>
When you change the versions correctly, no such errors will pop-up. Hope this will help you.
