I created a java bean based on a tutorial. After a little bit of trouble with the classpath, getting files in the right place, etc, I finally got it working. Whoo hoo!

Now, I'm working on a second java bean and I cannot get it to work. I'm at the point where I've stripped it down so it's basically identical to the tuturial with just a few changes. When it runs I get a NoSuchMethodError. I've checked, rechecked and re-rechecked my case and my names many many many times. I've rebooted. I've restarted Tomcat and my browser multiple times. What am I missing?

This is my Test.html:



This is my Test.jsp:




This is my java bean code:




The UserData.class file is in C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.10\webapps\EME\WEB-INF\classes\user
The WebPageData.class file is in C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.10\webapps\EME\WEB-INF\classes\com\penntraffic\emeApp

Both paths are included in my CLASSPATH environment variable.

This is the error text that I get when I click on the 'Search' button in Test.html (submit button):
type Exception report
message The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

If I remove the line that attempts to get the value of hhnum from the bean, everything works fine and I get the username value from the first bean. So the user bean is working, but there's obviously something wrong with my second bean (webPageData).

I've also tried using <jsp:getProperty name="webPageData" property="hhnum"/> rather than <%= webPageData.getHhnum() %>. I thought they would return identical results, but instead I get the below errors:
type Exception report

This shouldn't be this hard!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any ideas on why I would be getting that error? Some configuration setting I missed somewhere? I'm using Tomcat.

I've tried everything and I'm really at a loss.

Inside the tomcat directory,

tomcat>work>Catalina>localhost

delete (localhost) folder and shutdown the tomcat,then start it again and try running your application.

This might help sometimes
