RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed sample.war

I think you need to upgrade ecj to eclipse-ecj-4.4.jar or higher to fix the problem.

To resolve this bug would require an update of the ECJ library to at least version 4.4. Given that we don't have any users experiencing this issue at the moment and that the issue can be worked around by moving the bad code (which uses Maps) from the JSP into a Servlet, or helper class, I am closing this out.

Also note that another alternative would be to use Java 7.

This bug is really a no-op for tomcat; once the dependent bug (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1336481) is fixed, then we can close this one as closed/currentrelease.

The ECJ update (bug 1336481) has been released.
