[tejaspatel]

Hello,

I have created project using dynamic web moudule 3.0 and I am using STS2.6 and tcServer that comes along with it. I have also configured my project to run on this tcServer. When I right click on project and select Run AS ->
Run on server, my tcServer starts but with the following errors:

Can you post your application's web.xml please? It looks to me like there's an unexpected element in there that is not being handled gracefully.

Hi Andy,
I changed my server now I have configured external Tomcat6.0 into STS. But now I am getting following error. Any idea on this, I am not getting why it is showing me error on c.tld file. Though standard.jar is in my classpath...

That's not an error I've seen before, but a Google for

Failed to load or instantiate TagLibraryValidator class: org.apache.taglibs.standard.tlv.JstlCoreTLV

would suggest that plenty of other people have. It appears to be a problem with Maven/WTP.
