[Bug 1508562] Re: Broken symlinks for JSP support in libjetty-extra-java version 6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1

 

I got to a dead end. To try to make EL actually work, I had to change
the el-api.jar symlink to point to /usr/share/java/tomcat-el-api-2.2.jar
and add a new symlink to /usr/share/java/tomcat-util.jar. The next
error, however, is a NoSuchMethodError caused by a conflicting Servlet
API JAR. I don't think I can upgrade this without causing big troubles
to Jetty 6...

So, I think I must find a way to rollback to libtomcat6-java...

Title:
  Broken symlinks for JSP support in libjetty-extra-java version
  6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1

Status in jetty package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Version 6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1 of libjetty-extra-java has changed the
  dependency for Jasper (to enable JSP support) from libtomcat6-java
  package to libtomcat7-java.

  The Jasper JAR files provided by libtomcat7-java have different names:
  tomcat-jasper.jar instead of jasper.jar
  tomcat-jasper-el.jar instead of jasper-el.jar

  However the symlinks provided by the libjetty-extra-java in
  /usr/share/jetty/lib/jsp-2.1 folder have not been updated, as they
  still point to /usr/share/java/jasper.jar and /usr/share/java/jasper-
  el.jar: hence, the symlinks are broken and Jetty starts without JSP
  support (even if the libjetty-extra-java package is installed).

  Changing the symlinks to point to the updated file names bring to
  NoClassDefFoundExceptions, probably because of different dependencies
  of Tomcat 7 Jasper libraries:

  Please note that WebXmlConfiguration.java:510 is exactly the line in which the class for JSP support is loaded.
  I'll try to see if I can make this work with Tomcat 7 Jasper, but I was wondering why the dependency has been upgraded from libtomcat6-java to libtomcat7-java.
