Error "package com.ibm.as400.access does not exist"

Hi there,

I am doing some experiments with creating JSP pages using the IBM Toolbox 
for Java. I am using WDSCi as my development tool.

I have created two JSP pages. On the first page Messages.jsp, the user 
should enter the name of a user profile. The input is submitted to another 
page GetMessages. On the latter page, I have included the following page 
directive and scriptlet:

<%@ page 
language="java" 
contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" 
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" 
import="com.ibm.as400.access.*"
%>
<% 
AS400 server;
server = new AS400();
if (server != null) 
        out.println("Connection established");
else
        out.println("No connection");
%>

In the margin of the editor in the Web perspective, no errors are 
signalled. Now, when I run the page Messages.jsp on the test server, enter 
the name of a user profile and then press the button to submit the page, 
the following messages are shown when page GetMessages.jsp is displayed:

Error 500: Unable to compile class for JSP

org.apache.jsp._GetMessages server = new AS400(); ^ 3 errors 

In the project properties (in the Project Navigator), I have added 
jt400.jar to the 'JARs and class folders on the build path'. 

I don't know what is going wrong. Can anyone give me a clue?

Thanks in advance.
