Eclipse structure is, I have jstl.jar

I don't have neither weblogic.xml nor weblogic-application.xml

I read jstl weblogic oracle documentation but it doesn't explain nothing about this error.

Why does my project works in tomcat and doesn't work in weblogic 10.3.6

Weblogic as being a full fledged Java EE server already ships with JSTL builtin. It's likely conflicting with webapp-supplied JSTL. Remove it from the webapp and retry. Manually installing/supplying JSTL in webapp is only needed when you're targeting barebones servletcontainers which doesn't have JSTL builtin such as Tomcat (it has only JSP and Servlet and EL builtin and not EJB, JPA, JSF, etc..etc.. that's usually exactly why you had to use Spring on Tomcat instead of standard Java EE). — BalusC, Jun 26 '16 at 08:19
Thanks for your reply. Could you explain me how to remove jstl from webapp?. I dont't know how to do it — Carlota, Jun 26 '16 at 08:29
Why? I said to just remove JSTL from webapp. Weblogic already has it preinstalled. — BalusC, Jun 26 '16 at 11:32
I remove from pom.xm jstl. But I get still Error 500--Internal Server Error java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/servlet/jsp/jstl/core/Config at org.springframework.web.servlet.support.JstlUtils.exposeLocalizationContext — Carlota, Jun 26 '16 at 11:45
Apparently Spring 3.2.6 is not compatible with your Weblogic. As far as I know Weblogic 10.x is Servlet 2.5 based instead of Servlet 3.0. You should pick a Spring version matching Servlet 2.5 instead of 3.0. — BalusC, Jun 26 '16 at 15:02
