    *                      that does not exist, an error code      *

    ****************************************************************
    When a JSP page uses the JSTL c:import tag to import a file that
    does not exist, the following response is received:
    Error 500:
    com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.exception.IncludeFileNotFoundException:
    SRVE0190E: File not found: /test.htm
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JSP container was modified to not send a 500 error code
    when the JSTL
    c:import tag is used to import an nonexistent file.
    
    To activate this fix the following JVM custom property needs
    to be set:
    
    com.ibm.ws.jsp.proceedOnFileNotFoundExceptionDynamicImport:
    true / false
    (default)
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 7.0.0.43, 8.0.0.13, 8.5.5.11, and 16.0.0.3.  Please
