[JSTL] According to TLD or attribute directive in tag file, attribute items does not accept any expressions

The cause:

Version incompatibility between JSP, Servlet and JSTL.

Solution:

You will have to open the web.xml file in WEB-INF folder and check if the DTD version is correct.

Example:

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

The version above is 2.5 so you have to change to 2.4 or 2.3.
Matching versions are listed below:

- JSP 1.2 , Servlet 2.3 , JSTL 1.0;
- JSP 2.0 , Servlet 2.4 , JSTL 1.1;

Using the correct Servlet version the error won't be displayed anymore.

The absolute uri: http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application

2 - Put the tld file in WEB-INF folder;

3 - Open web.xml at WEB-INF folder and write the declaration below:

<taglib>
<taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/fmt.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>

4 - Make sure that you are calling:

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

on top of your JSP page;

5 - Restart your server if it's running and..

Reducing SQL Server Transaction Log Size

What can I do when I receive this message:

The transaction log for database 'xxx' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases in EXEC.

First check if you have no free space in your hard disk.

If you want to reduce your log file you can follow this steps:

1 - Backup the log at SQL Server Management Studio > Object Explorer > Databases > Right click your database > Tasks > Back Up and set "Transaction Log" in Backup Type field;

2 - alter database YourDataBaseName set recovery simple;

3 - dbcc shrinkfile ('YourDataBaseLogName', NewLogSize);
E.g.: dbcc shrinkfile ('StoreDb_log', 1);

4 - alter database YourDataBaseName set recovery full;
