Re: Fw: Error "package com.ibm.as400.access does not exist"

Ewout,

what you have done there is included jt400.jar with your application, which
works, but you may not want to redeploy that for ever application you run.

The other option is to add it to the classpath of the server, so its
available for all your applications, without needing to be included

It seems I have found the answer to my own question...

Initially, in the 'definition' for jt400.jar, I had selected the jt400.jar
in a subsubsubdirectory of the WDSC installation directory. Now, when I
was comparing the Properties of my current project with the Properties of
a Webfacing project, I noticed that it contained a copy of jt400.jar in a
subdirectory of the WebContent directory. Having noticed this, I copied
jt400.jar to the same subdirectory of my current project, and I changed
the 'definition' for jt400.jar in 'JARs and class folders on the build
path'. I then tried to run Messages.jsp on the server, and this time the
page GetMessages.jsp was displayed correctly, with the text 'Connection
established'.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi there,

I am doing some experiments with creating JSP pages using the IBM Toolbox
for Java. I am using WDSCi as my development tool.

I have created two JSP pages. On the first page Messages.jsp, the user
should enter the name of a user profile. The input is submitted to another
page GetMessages. On the latter page, I have included the following page
directive and scriptlet:

<%@ page
language="java"
contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"
import="com.ibm.as400.access.*"
%>
<%
AS400 server;
server = new AS400();
if (server != null)
       out.println("Connection established");
else
       out.println("No connection");
%>

In the margin of the editor in the Web perspective, no errors are
signalled. Now, when I run the page Messages.jsp on the test server, enter
the name of a user profile and then press the button to submit the page,
the following messages are shown when page GetMessages.jsp is displayed:

Error 500: Unable to compile class for JSP

org.apache.jsp._GetMessages server = new AS400(); ^ 3 errors

In the project properties (in the Project Navigator), I have added
jt400.jar to the 'JARs and class folders on the build path'.

I don't know what is going wrong. Can anyone give me a clue?

Thanks in advance.
