I’m using MyEclipse for Spring 2014. When I attempt to open a project jsp file I get the error –

Failed to create the part’s controls – followed by this code –

Did a reboot, with no affect.

Hi,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

Can you please answer some more questions for us ?

1. Do you have trouble opening only a particular jsp file or any jsp file across the workspace ?

2. Do you see any errors logged in the Problems view of the IDE for the jsp file ?

3. Please create a new simple web project and check if the issue persists with a new jsp file.

4. If you are seeing the issue with a particular jsp file in a project, please switch to a new workspace, replicate the issue and send us the project to help us replicate the issue at our end. Also send us the .log file which is located at <workspace dir>/.metadata/.log to help us investigate further.

1. It happens with any jsp in the project
2. It only happens in the one project. Other projects are fine. Created a new project and it also was fine.
3. Don’t see anything being added to the Problems area. Current have alot of items listed there from items being obsolete (like cellpadding)

Hi,

Thank you for the files. I could not replicate the issue at my end with your project.
It looks like a cache problem.

Can you please refresh the project and check if the issue persists ? If you are still seeing issues, please switch to a clean workspace and import the project to see if it fixes the issue.

Let us know how it works for you.

[dknutson]

I recovered by restoring a backup of the project. Thanks.

[support-pradeep]

dknutson,

Thanks for letting us know that the problem is fixed.
Let us know if you see any issues in MyEclipse
