Javax.servlet package does not exits

Hi all
i have set my classpath as follows:-
J2EE_HOME - c:\Sun\Appserver
path - %JAVA_HOME%\bin;%J2EE_HOME%\bin
set classpath- .;%JAVA_HOME%\lib;%J2EE_HOME%\lib\j2ee.jar
my j2se path and classpath already set
but after setting path and classpath for j2ee i m not able to compile my servlet
the error is package javax.servlet does not exits
i know this error arised when we dont include j2ee.jar in classpath , but i m using j2ee.jar as well in my classpath
plz suggest

but you can also try including it in the web-inf\lib folder of your webapp.You should NEVER bundle the servlet-api.jar into the WEB-INF/lib folder of a web application.
The server will always have its own copy. Putting your own there will just confuse things, and create errors.
Ok, so you have set the classpath. What tool are you using to compile your code? Does it look at the classpath?
Cheers,

Package javax.servlet.http does not exist

Hello All,
A few problems here
1. My classpath doesnt seem to work.:
.;"C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\lib\servlet-api.jar"
2. As a result, i get many errors in my simple code, but there are still a few that are not related to javac not recognizing the servlet api.
I also tried setting the classpath at the command line (event hough its temporary)
set classpath="C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\lib\servlet-api.jar"
but the servlet package is still not recognized
I have 2 classes, one to read the database connection details from a file and another class, my servlet.

The library is in tomcat/common/lib, not in tomcat/lib.

Problem: package javax.servlet.jsp does not exist

I am a novice JSP programmer. My projects that use any javax.servlet classes are not seeing those at all. I am working with a group of folks using Java SE 1.5. (Note: I'm using Windows so the directory separator is "\")
What Used to work:
1. Nearly all my projects were working using Java version 1.6. These projects were developed as examples from Wrox and Apress books about JSP and Struts.
What has changed:
1. I un-installed the version 1.6 of JDK and JRE, as well as tomcat, netbeans, and all the associated libraries/jars.
2. I installed version 1.5 of JDK and JRE, as well as tomcat, netbeans, and all the associated libraries/jars.
3. I updated my JAVA_HOME, CATALINA_HOME, CLASSPATH, and PATH environmental variables. I made sure that the path to servlet-api.jar (in the tomcat common\lib) is included in the classpath.
What is wrong:
1. References to javax.servlet.* are not satisfied--they are flagged in the source code in NetBeans and I get compiler errors with any project containing those references. For example:
... package javax.servlet.jsp does not exist
import javax.servlet.jsp.*;
What I've found:
1. My CATALINA_HOME=C:\Java\Tomcat 5.5
2. My JAVA_HOME=C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_11
3. My CLASSPATH=.;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QTJava.zip;%JAVA_HOME%\lib;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\jsp-api.jar;%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;C:\Java\logging-log4j-1.2.14\dist\lib\log4j-1.2.14.jar
4. My PATH=c:\wint\BIN;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin;C:\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin;D:\MiKTeX 2.5\miktex\bin;C:\Perl\bin\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\;C:\SFU\Perl\bin\;C:\SFU\common\;C:\Program Files\Lahey-Fujitsu Fortran\v7.1\Bin;C:\Program Files\Lahey-Fujitsu Fortran\v7.1\Win32\Bin
What I need:
1. I need to have some reference to the servlet classes satisfied in my configuration. Any help is appreciated.
thanks
jondr

Oh. I got some over-the-shoulder debug help.
My error was in the classpath specification:
The path: %JAVA_HOME%\lib\jsp-api.jar
Should be: %CATALINA_HOME%\lib\jsp-api.jar
That contains the javax.servlet.jsp.*
Thimk.

BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)Thank you.

Hi,
The file servlet-api.jar / servlet.jar is not available in your classpath.
To compile an Servlet you need the jar file to be in classpath.
The jar file can be found in your webserver / application server lib folder.

Package javax.servlet does not exist, package javax.servlet.http does not

Dear All,
I am a newbie to JAVA.
I installed JDK1.6.0_04, then NetBeans IDE 6.0
I tried compiling an example servlet, but got this error message:
package javax.servlet does not exist, package javax.servlet.http does not exist
I tried locating these packages, but in vain. I also tried setting the CLASSPATH to many values, still it did not work.
Can anyone, please, help me with this.
Should I be able to see/locate these packages, do I have to download them?
Thank you very much.

What servlet/JSP engine do you plan to deploy to? Tomcat, perhaps?I think it's Tomcat (C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache Tomcat 6.0.14). Are there other engines that come with NetBeans IDE 6.0 (when I downloaded NetBeans, I chose ALL)
>
If so, you'll need to put the servlet JAR in your CLASSPATH. (servlet-api.jar for Tomcat 5.5 and earlier, servlet.jar for 6.0 >and later.)
I tried locating these packages, but in vain.
You won't find them until you realize that you have to deploy that servlet someplace.How to deploy?
I also tried setting the CLASSPATH to many values, still it did not work.
See above. What were you planning to set CLASSPATH to?First I set to:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache Tomcat 6.0.14\lib (because I found jar named servlet-api.jar in this folder)
Later I added this:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_04\lib (out of trial-and-fail)
Finally I added some paths that lead to a library such as
C:\Program Files\glassfish-v2\lib
C:\Program Files\glassfish-v2\lib\ant\lib
Can anyone, please, help me with this.
Should I be able to see/locate these packages, do I have to download them?
You have to get a servlet/JSP engine. Step 1.Thank you for your help

Package javax.servlet.http does not exists

Hi,
I am new to J2EE and am writing my first servlet. I tried to compile a servlet I wrote and got the following error.
"package javax.servlet.http does not exists".
What do i do to correct this error?
Also is there any links which has a complete servlet tutorial.
Please advice
Thanx

Most probably you need to include the servlet-api library in your classpath when compiling.
You should find this file in the lib directory of your container.
It will be called servlet-api.jar (Tomcat) or j2ee.jar (Suns J2EE server) or something along those lines.
The j2ee tutorial is a decent place to start learning about servlets...

Import javax.mail package does not exists

Hi,
when i tried to compile the source code for email using jdk1.3.1, it compiled fine. but when i tried to compile using jdk1.4.., it had the following errors such as
import javax.mail package does not exists,
import javax.mail.internet package does not exists
package javax.activation does not exist
Is it because of the jdk version problem???
Pls help me

I have the same problem with javax.ejb
Now i've downloaded and installed the j2ee and set my classpath to the j2ee.jar. I've had to make a new path cause i'm running XP.
This doesn't work.
to compile it in Jcreator or JBuilder I can make it work by adding this package (j2ee.jar) in the project settings - required libraries.
But I have to do this for every project again and again.
I can make it work but i thougt the classpath would be enough ??

Javax.servlet.jsp does not exist

Hi,
I'm having difficulty compiling a simple java class. The eror message is on an import javax.servlet.jsp statement. The specific error message is:
package javax.servlet.jsp.tagext does not existThis is just a simple tutorial class from a J2EE book. I am confused if the servlet-api.jar file is what it needs and it isn't finding it, or if I need another file, perhaps the servlet.jar? (What is the difference between the two?)
My OS is Windows/XP
My java version is 1.4.2_06
Servlet-ap.jar exists in C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\common\libMy CLASSPATH is C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_06;My JAVA_HOME variable is C:\j2sdk1.4.2_06My Path is %JAVA_HOME%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;Thank you in advance.

I sometimes use a bash shell under "cygwin" on Windows XP for development, compiling, etc. The following example file would allow you to compile in a bash shell environment:

Windows 8 Remote Desktop Error "The Requested Security Package Does Not Exist"

When my remote host (win server 2008 R2) is configured to use SSL for security layer, RDP from my Windows 8 gets
"An authentication error has occurred. The requested security package does not exit."
When the host is set to use RDP security layer, it works fine.
Registry key solution for Win7 suggested on other posts does not seem to apply to win8.
This is a Lenovo desktop, I uninstalled silverlight and bunch of other OEM installed programs.

This fixed my problem in Windows 8 while connecting to a Windows 7 host. I needed the pku2u entry. I decided to look it up and here's the info for anyone that's interested.
Introducing PKU2U in Windows
Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2
This product evaluation topic for the IT professional describes the Public Key Cryptography Based User-to-User (PKU2U) security support provider (SSP) that is new in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
PKU2U protocol
The PKU2U protocol in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 is implemented as an SSP. The SSP enables peer-to-peer authentication, particularly through the Windows 7 media and file sharing feature called Homegroup, which permits sharing
between computers that are not members of a domain.
How PKU2U works
Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 introduce an extension to the Negotiate authentication package, Spnego.dll. In previous versions of Windows, Negotiate decides whether to use Kerberos or NTLM for authentication. The extension SSP for Negotiate,
Negoexts, which is treated as an authentication protocol by Windows, supports Microsoft SSPs including PKU2U. You can also develop or add other SSPs.
When computers are configured to accept authentication requests by using online IDs, Negoexts.dll calls the PKU2U SSP on the computer that is used to log on. The PKU2U SSP obtains a local certificate and exchanges the policy between the peer computers. When
validated on the peer computer, the certificate within the metadata is sent to the logon peer for validation and associates the user's certificate to a security token and the logon process completes.
For more information about developing SSPs, see
Custom Security Packages in the MSDN Library.
For more information about the Negotiate extensions (Negoexts), see
Introducing Extensions to the Negotiate Authentication Package.

Javax.servlet.http.* package does not exist ?

i am using j2sdk which does not include servlets, so in the forums i found that including servlet.jar file in jdk1.6.0\jre\lib\ext javax.servlet.* was included but javax.servlet.http did not ..... now this is strange either both do not work or both work. here is the code
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.Http.*;
class login
error is package javax.servlet.Http.*; does not exist.

Dear,
javax.servlet is one of the J2EE (Java Enterprise Edition) packages that is not included in the J2SE (Java Standard Edition) , so that one used for developing server side application.
I hope this help.

import javax.swing.*;
//Class Declaration
class SwingUI extends JFrame implements ActionListener { ... }
but trying to compile my servlet starting:
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class ExampServlet extends HttpServlet { ... }
gives me the error (import javax.servlet.*) "package does not exist".
Any pointers on this immediate problem? and is my book out of date?
Many thanks,
James Towell

You downloaded the Java 2 SDK Standard Edition, but you need to also download the Enterprise Edition if you want to write programs that use enterprise features.
