I have checked the previous “JSP editor-unknown tags” topic and have not found a solution.
I am working on the WebWorks2 example from their website: http://www.opensymphony.com/webwork/wikidocs/TutorialLesson03.html.

I have their jar, webwork-2.1.7.jar, loaded as an external jar. It contains the META-INF package containing the MANIFEST.MF file and the taglib.tld file. I have my project properties set as: MyEclipse-Web/Deployment/Library Deployment Policies/{Jars on Web Project build-path, Jars in Web Project’s user libraries}

So my jsp file:
```
<%@ taglib uri="webwork" prefix="ww" %> 
<html> 
<head> 
<title>WebWork Tutorial - Lesson 3 - Example 1</title> 
</head> 
<body> <

<ww:property value="hello" />

</body> 
</html>
```
works fine when it is deployed to Tomcat, but it still shows errors of:
```
Unable to read TLD "META-INF/taglib.tld" from JAR file "file:C:/Dev/Eclipse-All/Eclipse301/eclipse/workspace/TestWebWork2/WebRoot/WEB-INF/lib/webwork-2.1.7.jar": java.util.zip.ZipException: The system cannot find the file specified.  NOTE: No JSP line number was avaliable so line 1 was used for the marker.
```
on the top line
and
```
Multiple annotations found at this line:
 - No tag "property" defined in tag library imprted wtih prefix "ww"
 - Unknown tag (ww:property).
```
on the line using the ww:property tag.

So, how do i resolve compilation issues where it may be looking for the tld file in the webrootdir/META-INF directory when it actually exists in an external jar? Or is that even the problem?

thx

The issue looks like the file webwork-2.1.7.jar doesn’t contain a tld file internally at META-INF/taglib.tld. Can you open the archive with zip and see if it exists there?

I have their jar, webwork-2.1.7.jar, loaded as an external jar. It contains the META-INF package containing the MANIFEST.MF file and the taglib.tld file.

and the web.xml, from which the path for the tld in the webrootdir/META-INF is set accordingly.

So, when there are paths in the jars that have to be deployed to the WEB-INF/classes dir they are not apparantly being checked for the build, I’m assuming.
