JSP too big to compile error

I am developing an web application and i am getting the following error
when trying to run the application.
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: JSP cannot be compiled
compiler message file broken: key=compiler.err.compiler.err.limit.code.too.large.for.try.stmt arguments=null, null, null, null, null, null, nullI tried looking for the solution but without luck.
What causes this problem and how can it be solved?
any help? thanx a lot in advance

A Java sourcefile may not contain more than 65KB of code in a single method.
All the code you type in your JSP either directly or through static imports will be contained in a single method in the generated source.
Adding that one line to your JSP pushed it over the limit causing the compiler to complain, but if your JSP is that large you have problems as it is.
There are 2 ways around it:
1) code more efficiently by scrapping code that's not needed
2) use dynamic includes
Ideally you should probably do both of these.
Yes, I've run into it as well. Luckily it was not a JSP I'd originally written but had been asked to complete for someone else who had gotten lost in the complexity of a 5000 line piece of code (doh!).

ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array error

There is a possibility of mismatch of datatype, that can cause the problem.
Say in ODI model, you have defined a 'Date type' field to be stored as 'String' however at the time of mapping in 'Interface', no conversion happens (from date to string) for this particular object. This causes the problem.
The original query remains valid at DB side (fires for datetype) however fails while integrating (anticipating String which may be longer than defined in modelbecause of your NLS setting in DB). Therefore the best way would be to apply conversion for that particular field (in this case, use TO_CHAR(Date type,'Desired Date Format').

Microsoft Jscript compilation error - expected ';'

I had JRE 6 u5 on my new HP Laptopt dv-1110el. I've updated it from www.java.com to JRE 6 u11. Since then, sometimes randomly, when a java applet is loaded (I use IE7 protected mode/Vista Home Premium. Sadly I can't run IE7 with DEP too because of compilation error process by Sun who uses too old MS ATL libraries prior to v 7.1 for its Java builds! But this is another story and another bug...) I get this requester twice: Microsoft Jscript compilation error - expected ';', Ok.
After I press OK everything goes on fine and I can load other applets without errors, 'till I close & re-open IE7 where will happen again.
I tried to uninstall all Java I had, to clean-up registry but the 'Microsoft Jscript compilation error - expected ';'' pop-up requester still come out. Others experienced this?

All I did was to update my brand new Laptop HP Pavilion dv5-1110el (IE7/Vista Home Premium x86, SP1, Ita, UAC on) from pre-installed JRE 6 u5 -> JRE 6 u11 using [http://java.com/it/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1]
After this the bug started to happen.
Uninstalling all Java entries from Control Panel and using HP Recovery manager to reinstall default JRE 6 u5 solves the problem. Looks like a bug in JRE 6 u11.
Here is a shot of the problem (I have to go thru 2 Ok requesters):

Aggressive JSP and TAG file Compilation?

I get JSP and TAG file compile errors only when I touch and save the file. Isn't there a way to get these to build automatically by the NitroX builder? I'm constantly getting Jasper compile errors at runtime and having problems when I rename/refactor code that is referenced by .tag files.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi,
Does this happen to all of your JSP files?
Please check these settings and update the status:
* Is your project associated with source control or present on local drive?
* Window > Preferences > Workbench (General > workspace) - Build automatically
* Project > Properties > Builders
- Java Builder
- NitroX AppXRay Builder
Did the behavior change due to any of the recent modification/upgrade?
What version of Eclipse & NitroX are you using?
* Help > About NitroX > Click on Eclipse icon - Version & build id

How do I add an included jsp to my project and not get a compile error?

Hi,
I have a project with some included jsp's however if I add them to the project, when I build I get a compile error as the jsp uses variables from the calling jsp.
Any ideas on how to get round this.
Thanks
DM

There are two main ways that I deal with this problem (yeah, it sucks, but it sort of makes sense that it happens...) (I presume you're talking static include here...)
#1 - name the included file with an extension that JDev will not try to compile (.jspf - for JSP Fragment - is common) Then it will be compiled in with the including page, but won't gag the project compilation. Advantage - it works, and you find out at compile time if you hosed up the variable reference. Disadvantage: JDev tries really, really, really hard to keep you from naming a JSP file with an extension of .jspf I normally create the .jsp file in JDev, remove it from the project, rename the file outside of JDeveloper, then add it back to the project - pain in the butt, but it works (and you probably aren't building scads of these included files...)
#2 - add the variable to be referenced to the pageContext implicit object as an attribute in your including page (ex, <% pageContext.setAttribute("myVar", myVar); %>), then reference that attribute in your included JSP (ex, <%= pageContext.getAttribute("myVar") %>) . It will compile fine (as the compiler has no way of knowing if the pageContext attribute actually exists, it just sees that the syntax is good and motors along merrily. Advantage: don't have to have differently named JSP files (which isn't actually a big deal). Disadvantage: You hvae to add the variable to the pageContext (and you have to always add Object derivatives, as primitives won't go into a hash) and you don't find out if you screwed the variable up until runtime (when it tries the getAttribute, which could return null if you didn't properly set it to start with) vs at compile-time w/ the direct reference.
HTH!

Weblogic 9 and JSP compiler errors

Hello everyone,
          I am having problems with my Jsps in my EAR file deployed on WL 9.0.
          I have a Jsp called upms.jsp that contains the following code snippets:
          After my import statements, I have some code that creates a resource bundle that accesses a properties file:
           <%!
               ResourceBundle bundle = null;
               public void jspInit() {
               bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("conf.properties");
          %>
          I get an error from the above code:
          upms.jsp:3:11: 'try' statement has neither 'catch' nor 'finally' clause
                    import="java.util.ResourceBundle"
          ^----------------------^
          I am totally clueless as to what that error means.
          Next I declare a bean I use in the jsp:
               <jsp:useBean
                    id="userPrefsManagerBean"
          class="controllers.beans.UserPreferencesManagerBean"
               scope="session">
               </jsp:useBean>
               <jsp:setProperty name="userPrefsManagerBean" property="*" />
          I get these errors from the above portion:
          upms.jsp:27:3: The qualifier of this name is a package, which cannot contain fields.
               <jsp:setProperty name="userPrefsManagerBean" property="*" />

          ^-------------^
          Has anyone encountered these before?
          This jsp worked perfectly well when I deployed my EAR file on JBoss...no such luck using Weblogic.
          Is there something I am missing here? I appreciate any help.
          Cheers, :-)
          M.

Mildred,
          Two suggestions:
          1) use option weblogic.jspc's "-keepgenerated", you can keep the generated
          servlet's source code.
          Please paste it here.
          2) Can you create a simple reproducer(e.g. a war), and put it here, so that
          we can debug it and give more clues.
          To reproduce your issue, I write a simple a simple
          UserPreferencesManagerBean classs below :
          package controllers.beans;
          public class UserPreferencesManagerBean {
          private int p1;
          public void setP1(int p)
          p1 = p;
          public int getP1()
          return p1;
          But it works(oh, I run it under 910MP1).
          We cannot tell too much without your further information
          Thanks

Array Dimension Too Big Error

Hi,
For the following declaration I am getting "Array Dimension Too Big" error with Forte C Compiler on Solairs 8.
double try[23200][23000];
What is the mx dimension possible? and Where do I find such info on boundary conditions??
Regards,
Gurudatta

Hi There,
The legal limit of the array is whatever the hardwareand swap space will support.
You are asking for 8*23000*20000 bytes /1024/1024 = 3509.52 megabytes = 3.43 gigabytes.
You are declaring this much allocation locally via
automatic array in your example. You'll have to define a stack this size (hardly practical).
If you ask for this much memory with malloc() which is a much better idea, you'll still need to have enough swap.
You can also do mmap(...,MAP_NORESERVE,...) in which case you may not even need the swap to support it.
It all depends on what you are doing and why.

I'm trying to open a 900kb Word doc (240pages) in Pages but get this error message: Import Warning - A table was too big. Only the first 40 columns and 1,000 rows were imported.

Julian,
Pages simply won't support a table with that many rows. If you need that many, you must use another application.
Perhaps the originator could use a tabbed list rather than a table. That's the only way you will be able to contain a list that long in Pages. You can do the conversion yourself if you open the Word document in LibreOffice, Copy the Table, Paste the Table into Numbers, Export the Numbers doc to CSV, and import to Pages. In Pages Find and Replace the Commas with Tabs.
There are probably other ways, but that's what comes to mind here.

Compile error "input line is too long" when using useLegacyAOT

I'm using FlashBuilder 4.7 and the release of AIR 4 on Windows 7 to package for iOS...As soon as I include 3 or more ANEs I can no longer compile to iOS (and also use the new "useLegacyAOT no" command). When I try I get an error "The input line is too long. Compilation failed while executing : compile-abc"
I found a couple other similar issues. One post suggested instead of pointing to individual ANEs (in Package Contents) to point to a folder instead--but this doesn't fix the
Another post for a slightly different problem said it was fixed in the release of AIR 4.
Any ideas? I wonder if I move my AIR SDK to a simple path (like "c:\air\adt.jar" instead of "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 (64 Bit)\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK\lib\adt.jar") if it'd help.
Thanks in advance!

Awesome! I got used to the new useLegacyAOT thing very fast. In the meantime, I have to decide whether to remove all my ANEs and test or sit through an interminable build sequence.
What's the current plan for a new release? Is there any way I could get a beta copy just to use during development?
Thanks!

JSP Compilation Error when using OC4J out of the box

Hello.
After installing Java jdk 1.5.0_05, setting ORACLE_HOME, setting JAVA_HOME, rebooting, and installing OC4J standalone straight out of the box, I have deployed a simple web project that consists of just one JSP. I receive the following error message:
NOTIFICATION J2EE JSP-0008 Unable to dispatch jsp Page: oracle.jsp.provider.JspCompilationException: Errors compiling: C:\LocalApps\OC4J\j2ee\home\application-deployments\oc4j_jsp\persistence\_pages\\_Test.java<pre></pre>
I have deployed a number of Flex2 applications without incident. What am I missing here? Another odd thing is that my organization has OAS running and it can render JSPs fine.
Any help is appreciated thanks,
Mike
P.S. I have gone back and set the JSP debug switches, but they do not yeild much more info. Here is the stacktrace:

I had the very same Problem, and I spent a lot of time on it.
When installing Oc4j as a service using Javaservice opnesource, I had no problem, even using J.D.K 1.6:
%JSEXE% -install %JSNAME% %JVMDIR%\jvm.dll -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -Djava.class.path=%OC4J_HOME%\oc4j.jar -start oracle.oc4j.loader.boot.BootStrap -params -config %OC4J_HOME%\config\server.xml -out %OC4J_HOME%\log\OC4J_service_stdout.log -err %OC4J_HOME%\log\OC4J_service_stderr.log -current %JSBINDIR% -auto -description OC4JService
Then I wanted to install it using "ServiceMill" or "Javaservice Wrapper", becuase it has a better control on the process and I had that awfull compilation error.
I guess it is because ServiceMills uses java.exe and javaservice the .dll to launch the oc4j, no idea.
Anyway, thank you very much!!!!!

This appears to be a CLASSPATH problem (you are missing references to
          'com.ford.redherring.model.*' and 'com.ford.redherring.util.*'). The
          CLASSPATH may be set in the server startup script. Hope this helps.

How to see JSP compilation errors - Tomcat 4.1.18- JDK 1.4

Hi There,
I'm kind of new to JSP world, so once in while I forget to put a ; or I put a variable name wrong (I usualy use Eclipse to do my coding in JAVA, but the existing plugins for JSP development are still in their early stages, so there's isn't any plugin that indicates errors on JSP before deploying them).
When I try to see a JSP, if it has an error (compilation-time error), I get this message:
<--->
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
<--->
This doesn't help me a lot to fix the problem, I would like to, at least, see from what line the error came from.
Help anyone?
Thank You
Pinho

This kind of errors often come from syntax error in
the jsp page.
Tomcat is not very friendly with this kind of errors.
A trick is to open the java file under the 'work'
directory and checkIsn't there any way to show the error on a page, just like a run-time error?
Maybe changing some log setting?

Newbie: jsp compile error w/ tomcat 5.0.19

Hello there, this is my first time try to write something in jsp/ servlets, and i encounter a minor installation problem:
using mdk linux with j2sdk1.4.2 (locate at /usr/local/), tomcat is also locate at /usr/local.
I am able to see HelloServlet.java, and HelloWorld.html at http://localhost:8080/servlet/HelloServlet
and http://localhost:8080/testing/HelloWorld.html
but i'm unable to see HelloWorld.jsp at http://localhost:880/HellowWorld.jsp (my HelloWorld.html and HellowWorld.jsp are locate at the same dir)
here's are the things i added in my /etc/profile so far:
CATALINA_HOME="/usr/local/Tomcat"
export CATALINA_HOME
JAVA_HOME="/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2"
export JAVA_HOME
JavaPath="/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2/bin"
export JavaPath
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/local/Tomcat/common/lib/servlet-api.jar:/usr/local/Tomcat/
common/lib/jsp-api.jar:/home/allen/programming/j2ee/:./
export CLASSPATH
when do java -verison, i see:
[root@localhost local]# java -version
java version "1.4.2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode)
when start tomcat, i got:
[root@localhost bin]# ./startup.sh
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/Tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/Tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/Tomcat/temp
Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2
i thought i did everything that was told, yet i can't see jsp page on my browser, while i can see servlets and html,
thank you for your time in advance ^_^

sorry, it was a typo, yea...it was for http://localhost:8080/testing/Hello.jsp
this morning, i copied "tool.jar" from j2sdk1.4.2 to my /usr/local/tomcat/common/lib, restarted, fire it up again using "./catalina.sh" just to see where the problems came from, and here's where the compile error occue:
Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

looking over the compiler error, it seems to me tomcat is able to recongize /usr/local/j2sdk1.4 's location. which i assume it implied JAVA_HOME and CLASSPATH are setup correctly.
Dunno why it just won't display jsp pages and kept saying compiler error...
thank you for helping

JSP compiler error (WL 4.5.1, RH Linux 6.1, JDK 1.1.8)

I am new to WebLogic, and have been trying to get it setup to serve JSP
files. I followed the instructions in the documentation. However, when
I try to access a JSP, I get the following errors. It looks like my
java compiler doesn't like the syntax WebLogic uses to call the
compiler. From the documentation, I have found that syntax is:
java weblogic.jspc -d /working/directory /path/to/jsp/file
I have tried this on the command line with the correct paths to my
files, only to result in a series of class not found errors (e.g.,
antlr.CharScanner, antlr.Tokenizer,
com.sun.java.util.collections.ArrayList, etc.). I keep downloading more
packages but everytime I try again, I need to download yet another
class. I'm at the point where I cannot find the class it currently
needs (antlr.Tokenizer).
I have these questions:
1. Should it really be this difficult & complicated to compile jsps?
2. Are these problems happening because I'm running the WL server on
Linux?
3. Why are the errors so totally different between running a JSP on the
web and running one on the command line?
4. What should I do?
The log below contains the error messages when attempting to compile
from the web browser:

If it helps, I will post the error messages from the command line, which
are all, basically, class not found exceptions; I do not wish to make
this an unnecessarily long email, though.
Thank you for your help!
Jacqui

Run the command like this:
java -classpath /opt/weblogic/classes:/opt/weblogic/lib/weblogicaux.jar:/usr/java/lib/classes.zip weblogic.jspc -d /working/directory /path/to/jsp/file
Hope this helps,
