Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class

Question

I have a JSP page

<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<html>
<body>
    <c:forTokens items="Zara,nuha,roshy" delims="," var="name">
    <c:out value="${name}"/><p>
    </c:forTokens>
</body>
</html>

when I try to start it I there is an error

HTTP Status 500 - java.lang.ClassFormatError: Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class file javax/servlet/jsp/jstl/core/LoopTagSupport

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.ClassFormatError: Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class file javax/servlet/jsp/jstl/core/LoopTagSupport

I believe this is explained in a different question by Bill Shannon:

The javax:javaee-api is only intended for compiling against, not for running against, including unit tests. If you need classes suitable for running against, you really need a full Java EE application server.

Also, note to everyone - THERE IS NO JEE!!! The correct name is "Java EE". Thanks.
