JSP Precompile with EAR

[arion]

I try precompile JSP pages within EAR -> WAR without success.
I am using WebLogic 6.0 SP2 and a single JSP (namely test.jsp) without
any JSP tags at all. The JSP works without precompile.

Thanks for any help.

The precompile tag should be included in web.xml file as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application
1.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<context-param>

<param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>
