Answer 1

Malert is Right. U need the necessary jar files on your classpath. Ant is a build tool from Apache Software Foundation.



After ur Additional detail.

Yes u need that package to compile servelets. U also need Ant since JBoss uses ant to compile and build ur project when u press the compile project button. But Ant should already be bundled with JBoss if u have installed JBoss correctly.

Answer 2

jdk and jboss is good enough to run servlets and jsp programs, the error may be due to the missing of necceary jar files in the classpath. check it once and try again
