Is “Allow output folders for source folders” no longer an option? In another post the solution was to uncheck it.

I have some existing web projects that have a different structure. Using past versions of myeclipse I have been able to check “Allow output folders for source folders” and have it deploy based on the output settings for the source folder. For example the project has web/images, web/includes, and web/jsp folders. Setting these as source folders with output to “WebRoot” would deploy just fine.

I’m now getting an error whenever a source folder is set to output other than the default.

I’ve tried cleaning the project, creating a new workspace. Should this work?

Here is the error:
org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.ResourceException: Resource ‘/oat/WebRoot/WEB-INF/classes’ does not exist.

Is “Allow output folders for source folders” no longer an option?

You mean you are unable to find this option? It present under Project > Properties > Java Build Path > Source.

I mean that in another post the developer was told to “uncheck” the option in order to solve a similar issue.

I am able to find and check the option, but it will not deploy. Please see the error info in the original post.

Thanks for your help.

Is this happening with just one project or with all projects. I want you to try this out with a new project and let me know if you get the same error. That would help us know whether this is a project related issue or an IDE related issue.

It may be project related. I have one project that works, but I can’t get it to work for any new projects. I did create a new project as follows:

1. New Web Project (entered project name; everything else default)
2. New Class (enter package and name)
3. New source folder
4. Copied web.xml to new folder
5. Configure build path
– – Check “Allow output folders for source folders”
– – Set output for new folder to “WebRoot/WEB-INF/”
6. Click OK

The log file then shows the error.

I have tried comparing all the dot files from the working project with other projects. Even though I make all the non-project specific values the same it still gives the error.

The projects use cvs. Is there a way to change the project structure, but have the files synchronize with the original cvs location?

Thanks for looking at this issue.

It appears that it is only an error when the output folder is “WebRoot/WEB-INF”. Setting the output folder to “WebRoot/jsp” does not give an error.

Any ideas? Should this be posted as a bug?
