Hey Felipe,

Your jsp cannot resolve the bean properly. Where in the war file is that bean located? Is this bean in the default package?

cheers

Place the bean in a package other than the default.

Thanks for the information. Do you know of a good site that shows how to setup a WAR file and where to put it once it is created.

You have to put the war file in the webapps folder of you tomcat installation. Usually tomcat is setup to pick the war file automatically (hot deployment). So you don't have to deploy anything. If it is not automatically deployed you could go through the server logs for errors or to the tomcat administration to deploy the application manually.

Thanks for all the help, I realized the problem was that it was not in a package. During my search I found ANT and that works wonderful to deploy application to Tomcat
