  • Did you include a jasper jar in your war file? This sounds like a conflict between jar files supplied by Tomcat and jar files in your war. I would remove any conflicting jars from the war. Commented Feb 26, 2017 at 14:34

The root cause of a ClassNotFoundException is usually a missing (or out-of-date) Maven dependency.

I suggest to add more jsp dependencies. This is what I use on Tomcat 8:

  <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.servlet.jsp</groupId>
            <artifactId>javax.servlet.jsp-api</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.1</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.el</groupId>
            <artifactId>javax.el-api</artifactId>
            <version>3.0.0</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl</groupId>
            <artifactId>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl-api</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.1</version>
            <scope>compile</scope>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>

            <artifactId>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.2</version>
            <scope>compile</scope>
            <exclusions>
