JSP not finding bean

[catface]

I am having problems running a JSP with a java class file on a Tomcat server.
My files are located at:
tomcat/webapps/ROOT/temp.jsp
tomcat/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/tempbeans/TempBean.class

<%@ page import="tempbeans.*" %>  <% TempBean bean = new TempBean(); %><%@ page import="tempbeans.*" %> 
 
<% TempBean bean = new TempBean(); %>
 

The contents of my class file.

package tempbeans;
public class TempBean
{
 
    public TempBean()
    {
    }
}

When I attempt to go to temp.jsp I get the following Exception:

exception

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:

An error occurred at line: 3 in the jsp file: /temp.jsp
TempBean cannot be resolved to a type
1: <%@ page import="tempbeans.*" %>
2:
3: <% TempBean bean = new TempBean(); %>

The code runs on my local Eclipse set-up? Is there something wrong with my remote set-up?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
