LOCAL FIX:

PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
All users of IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
An OSGi web app using jsp and jstl by default currently needs to explicitly import the jstl spec packages.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

An OSGi web application using jsps and jstl needs to explicitly import the jstl spec packages. Such an application would haveworked on 8558 and will show jsp compilation errors when a jsp using jstl is accessed.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
Classloading structure for jsp for osgi applications has been modified so the default setting of the backwards compatibility flag makes the jstl spec packages available to any osgi web application.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fixpack 8.5.5.10. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information:
