APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
Duplicate entry of the tagdir tag will cause a translation error in WebSphere Application Server 7.0 even when the prefix being redefined is in the same namespace URI. According to the JSP2.1 Specs: If a taglib directive is encountered in a standard syntax page that attempts to redefine a prefix that is already defined in the current scope (by a JSP segment in either syntax), a translation error must occur unless that prefix is being redefined to the same namespace URI. A translation error should not be thrown in this scenario.
Local fix
To allow taglib redefinitions for an app, you can either set the following JSP attribute: <jsp-attribute name="allowTaglibPrefixRedefinition" value="true"/> Or you can set a webcontainer custom property for the server (note this will affect all apps on the server): Admin Console -> Application servers -> (serverName) -> Web container -> Custom properties : com.ibm.wsspi.jsp.allowtaglibprefixredefinition=true
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM WebSphere Application Server Version * * 7.0 users of JavaServer Pages (JSP). * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A taglib directive that redefines a * * prefix that is already defined with * * the same namespace URI causes a * * translation error. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The following translation error occurs when redefining a taglib directive: JSPG0240E: Attempt to redefine the prefix "test" to "urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/test", when it was already defined as "/WEB-INF/tags/test" in the current scope. An example of the redefinition that causes the error is: <%test.inc%> <%@taglib prefix="test" tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags/test" %> <%test.tag%> <%@include file="test.inc" %> <%@taglib prefix="test" tagdir="/WEB-INF/tags/test" %> There should be no error since the same URI is being used in both definitions of the "test" prefix: "/WEB-INF/tags/test".
Problem conclusion
The JSP container was updated to allow the redefinition of a prefix as long as they have the same URI. APAR PM38186 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service Level 7.0.0.19 of WebSphere Application Server V7.0.
