    copied!<p>I'm new with jsp pages and just yesterday I opened a similar discussion. This could be a repeat or a very similar one and I'm so sorry whether this is the case, but are just few days that I'm developing jsp pages and I haven't understood how the enviroment, the folders, etc are "linked" together.</p> <p>I got the following error on <em>Apache Tomcat 7</em></p> <pre><code>HTTP Status 500 - The absolute uri: http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application </code></pre> <p>because I included this <em>taglib</em></p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then, I created a folder "lib" into the "WEB-INF" one and I put there the file <em>jstl-1-2.jar</em>. A user suggested into another discussion reachable from here <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8701307/the-absolute-uri-http-java-sun-com-jsp-jstl-core-cannot-be-resolved-in-either/8701326#8701326">The absolute uri: http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application</a> to remove the <em>standard.jar</em> but I have never had a similar file.</p> <p>Reading and surfing on the web, I read that in <em>Tomcat 7</em> should be sufficient to put <em>jstl-1-2.jar</em> into the WEB-INF/lib folder like below but both with and without that file, nothing happen. The error doesen't change.</p> <pre><code>/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/jsp_test/web/WEB-INF/lib/jstl-1-2.jar </code></pre> <p>This is the folders three:</p> <pre><code>- webapps - ROOT - index.html - META-INF - context.xml - jsp_test - nbproject - src - conf - MANIFEST.MF - java - mypack - Display.java - web - ROOT - index.jsp - WEB-INF - lib -jstl-1.2.jar - web.xml - beans.xml </code></pre> <p>I noticed also that there's another <em>web.xml</em> file also into the tomcat 7 folder:</p> <pre><code>/etc/tomcat7/web.xml </code></pre> <p>Do I have to change something in both the <em>web.xml</em> files?</p> <p>Moreover, looking in the tomcat7-example folder there is a <em>web.xml</em> file where many libraries are written with a .tld extention:</p> <pre><code>/usr/share/tomcat7-examples/examples/WEB-INF/web.xml </code></pre> <p>I lost my way for this stupid thing, help me please! :)</p>
