Broken link error for jstl tag

Did you add corresponding lines to web.xml?

<jsp-config>

<taglib>

<taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core</taglib-uri>

<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/c.tld</taglib-location>

</taglib>

</jsp-config>

Also you should place jstl.jar and standard.jar to ${Catalina_HOME}/common/lib

and you should place c.tld to Application/WEB-INF directory

These steps are not necessary:

>add corresponding lines to web.xml?

>tld to Application/WEB-INF directory

Actually all that is required is to put the jstl.jar and standard.jar in the web application classpath. The tld is bundled in the jar.

>you should place jstl.jar and standard.jar to ${Catalina_HOME}/common/lib

While it works in common/lib, it is not necessarily the best place for it.

/common/lib is the place to put libraries required by both the Tomcat engine, and your web apps. JSTL is not one of those. I would prefer /shared/lib.

Putting it in WEB-INF/lib makes it available to just the one web app.

Putting it in /shared/lib makes it available to all your web applications.
