And the JSP code is
<html>
<body>
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.google.com/" prefix="mytag" %>
<mytag:currentDate/>
</body>
</html>

http://www.google.com/ is not a tag library URI, that is why you are getting error.
<%@ taglib uri="" prefix="mytag" %>
The uri should be
1. any absolute uri or it
2. or Keep tag library in WEB-INF and configure in web.xml and refer the URL in taglib in your JSP.
