Description of problem:
I am using Jasper on Fedora Core 6 to precompile some of my jsp's.

I come across the following classpath builder errors when trying run
the jasper script:-

$ /usr/bin/jasper5.sh
/usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Could not find jasper-compiler Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Could not find jasper-runtime Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Could not find jsp-2.0-api Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Could not find servlet-2.4-api Java extension for this JVM
/usr/bin/build-classpath: error: Some specified jars were not found
Usage: /usr/bin/jasper5.sh ( jspc )
Commands:
  jspc - Run the offline JSP compiler

The script /usr/bin/jasper5.sh tries to build a classpath using the build-classpath utility including the following: "jasper-compiler", "jasper-runtime", "jsp-2.0-api" and "servlet-2.4-api".

Jars by this name do not exist, but similarly named ones are in /usr/share/java.


By creating links to the following files I get rid of the errors

$ su -
# cd /usr/share/java
# ln -s jasper5-compiler.jar jasper-compiler.jar
# ln -s jasper5-runtime.jar jasper-runtime.jar
# ln -s tomcat5-jsp-2.0-api.jar jsp-2.0-api.jar
# ln -s tomcat5-servlet-2.4-api.jar servlet-2.4-api.jar
# exit
$ /usr/bin/jasper5.sh
Usage: /usr/bin/jasper5.sh ( jspc )
Commands:
  jspc - Run the offline JSP compiler

Either the jasper package should create these links or the names of the required jars should be changed in the script.




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat5-jasper-5.5.17-6jpp.2

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. /usr/bin/jasper5.sh

Actual Results:
See above

Expected Results:
Should see usage warning without error messages

$ /usr/bin/jasper5.sh
Usage: /usr/bin/jasper5.sh ( jspc )
Commands:
  jspc - Run the offline JSP compiler
