The Apache Tomcat Project is proud to announce the release of version 8.5.38 of Apache Tomcat. Apache Tomcat 8.5.x replaces 8.0.x and includes new features pulled forward from Tomcat 9.0.x. The minimum Java version and implemented specification versions remain unchanged. Tomcat/JSF Installation Instructions Required Skills.

I am following the Spring-MVC tutorial and currently I am on part 2. The tutorial requires me to download jstl.jar
and standard.jar
, which were once part of the Jakarta Taglibs project. The project has since moved to Apache, but when I go to Apache's site. to download the taglibs, I get 403 Forbidden
.
So my question is, where can I download jstl.jar
and standard.jar
, so that I can get on with this tutorial?

You can find them both in the Maven central repo:
Kevin StembridgeKevin StembridgeSince JSTL 1.1 is out of life, Apache has put it in the archive. Pick the jakarta-taglibs-standard-current.zip
file.
However, if you're running a Servlet 2.5 compatible container and the web.xml
is declared as at least Servlet 2.5, then you should be able to use the new JSTL 1.2 instead. Note that JSTL 1.2 does not require a standard.jar
.
