java - Cannot Find Symbol error when using jsp page import -
i have been trying import java class jsp page using typical syntax:
<%@ page import="packagename.helloworldtest" %> and
<%@ page import="packagename.* %> whenever try receive error:
pwc6199: generated servlet error: cannot find symbol
symbol: class helloworldtest
location: package packagename
pwc6197: error occurred @ line: 3 in jsp file: /web-inf/jsp/test.jsp
pwc6199: generated servlet error: cannot find symbol
symbol: variable helloworldtest
location: class org.apache.jsp.web_002dinf.jsp.test_jsp
i'm using maven. have reconfigured project default output folder web-inf/classes, still receive error.
it's when maven build finishes don't have helloworldtest class generated inside /web-inf/classes/packagename/ folder. if not, need fix maven configuration.
if class file there, check final war artifact maven generating. class there too? if yes, check exploded war directory on servlet container has class file (under /webapps folder in tomcat).
if class file exists inside app server too, check spelling mistakes in package name specified in jsp.
