Hello,

I am trying to migrate my existing project to my eclipse. For all my jsp’s i get following error.

I did right click the context menu and did Recompile All JSPs..No luck..problem persists..

Following are the details.

operating system – windows XP

Eclipse version and build id – Version: 2.1.0 Build id: 200303272130

– Was Eclipse freshly installed for MyEclipse? No

– If not, was it upgraded to its current version using the update manager? No

– Are any other external plugins installed? No

-What MyEclipse version – 2.6.2

What JDK version are you using to run Eclipse? (java -version) 1.3.1_02

What steps did you take that resulted in the issue?
Had existing j2ee project say C:\hp\jboss\server\default\deploy\hpovact.sar\activator.war
I am creating a new webproject in myeclipse using
project name – activator
location – C:\hp\jboss\server\default\deploy\hpovact.sar\activator.war
WebRootfolder-C:\hp\jboss\server\default\deploy\hpovact.sar\activator.war
context root – activator

After theses steps myeclipse shows the above mentioned error for all jsps.

Regards,
Elyas

Elyas,

Could you try running Eclipse with a newer JDK? Some of the old 1.3.1 JDK’s had several bugs that have since been fixed and if memory serves this looks like one of them. To run Eclipse with a different VM, open the alias you’re using to launch Eclipse and add the following option to eclipse.exe:
-vm <path_to_1.4.2_jdk_dir>\bin\java2.exe

When you relaunch Eclipse, recompile your JSP’s and see if this solves the problem. Please let us know what you find.
