I was working on a JSF 1.x example, which has some EL conflict in JSPs. the line actionListener="#{helloBean.addControls} is shooting an issue.

The error is :

HTTP Status 500 - /JSP/hello.jsp (line: 37, column: 2) A literal value was specified for attribute actionListener that is defined as a deferred method with a return type of void. JSP.2.3.4 does not permit literal values in this case

My project Description is as follows :

Clean Deployment : The application is deploying itself fine on Tomcat 7. I checked the deployed package structure on &tomcat_home%/webapps and everything is in proper place as expected.

But when i run the application on a browser I get the following error :

HTTP Status 500 - /JSP/hello.jsp (line: 37, column: 2) A literal value was specified for attribute actionListener that is defined as a deferred method with a return type of void. JSP.2.3.4 does not permit literal values in this case

I am not finding a suitable one stop solution for this issue. It is the EL used on the line actionListener="#{helloBean.addControls} which is raising the complications. Please let me know the solution.

Change inside your web.xml

<webapp>

into

<web-app version="2.5"
      xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
      http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">

in addition to the above try adding

to your web-app...

like this

 <web-app version="2.5"
      xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
      http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
      xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
      id="WebApp_ID">
