Jsp Jstl Core Jar File
Active4 years, 6 months ago
I have looked up for a solution. This is the closest it gets and This. Any of these did not worked. I get the following exception. I am using spring boot. I am running it as a Spring boot app. not inside Tomcat.
‘The absolute uri: cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application’.
this is my pom.
It seems to me every thing is in place. I still get the error. I looked at the Maven dependancies. I can see the jstl-1.2.jar

You’re trying to use Jetty as an embedded container and, as stated in the Spring Boot documentation, JSPs are not supported with embedded Jetty:
When running a Spring Boot application that uses an embedded servlet container (and is packaged as an executable archive), there are some limitations in the JSP support.
- With Tomcat it should work if you use war packaging, i.e. an executable war will work, and will also be deployable to a standard container (not limited to, but including Tomcat). An executable jar will not work because of a hard coded file pattern in Tomcat.
- Jetty does not currently work as an embedded container with JSPs.
- Undertow does not support JSPs.
There is a JSP sample so you can see how to set things up.

The jasper is provided in the tomcat container. So, when this is run as a Spring boot application, it does not have jasper dependency provided. So, I added this instead of making this provided.
