title: Exception getting JodaTime JSP Taglibs working
body: <p>I'm trying to get the JodaTime taglib working in my Spring 3 MVC app. </p>
  
  <p>Per the <a href="http://www.joda.org/joda-time-jsptags/" rel="nofollow">website</a> I should be able to put this in my jsp page and it should work.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%@taglib prefix="joda" uri="http://www.joda.org/joda/time/tags" %&gt;
  &lt;% pageContext.setAttribute("now", new org.joda.time.DateTime()); %&gt;
  &lt;joda:format value="${now}" style="SM" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm getting this exception however:</p>
  
  <pre><code>org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/jsp/reports/../taglibs.jspf(7,66) PWC6188: The absolute uri: http://www.joda.org/joda/time/tags cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm running Glassfish 3.0.1. Servlet version 2.4 is declared in my web.xml file. JSP 2.1. JSTL 1.1. </p>
  
  <p>Addition: 
  I've added joda-time-jsptag-1.0.2.jar to my WEB-INF/lib directory. I also have joda-time-1.6.1.jar on the same lib dir. </p>
  
  <p>Does the taglib uri need to be valid? When I try and visit <a href="http://www.joda.org/joda/time/tags" rel="nofollow">http://www.joda.org/joda/time/tags</a> in my browser it redirects to the sourceforge page. Maybe I just need an updated URI link? </p>
  
  <p>Any takers? </p>
