action tag syntax is
<jsp:useBean id="name" class="beanName" scope="[page|request|session|application]" />
and
<jsp:getProperty name="name" property="propertyName" / >
so your code must be changed like this
<jsp:useBean id="myFoo" scope="request" class="Foo" />
<jsp:getProperty name="myFoo" property="bar.name" />
