So I am watching a tutorial about how to configure JSF in eclipse. I understand that you click file -> new -> Dynamic Web Project.
And then it gives you a few options. The Target Runtime will be (for me) Apache Tomcat version 8, and dynamic web module version will be 3.0. And in the configuration drop-down you are supposed to see Java Server Faces 2.0v or 2.1v, but I do not have that option.
Does anyone know why?
That can happen if you started with plain "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" instead of with "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers" and then manually added some plugins on it. Throw away your current Eclipse install and restart clean with "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".
If you dont see the JSF options, then its not part of your original eclipse version. In that case, you need to download the extra tools that you want. Go to Help -> Install New Software and then type the following URL in the box http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/kepler This URL is for Kepler version of Eclipse. You need to change it according to your eclipse version. jBossTools have JSF features. Restart the eclipse once the s/w is installed successfully.

I've been wondering how am I supposed to get Eclipse Java EE IDE for web developer.
I installed Neon Eclipse a month ago to do my core Java course and I'm starting on my Servlets and JSPs: Creating Web Application.
But I am unsure on how in doing it. My current neon eclipse only enable me to choose this option as shown below.
Based on my online tutorial courses, I need to get this information when creating a file from eclipse. But my neon eclipse doesn't have the option that allows me to.
Do I need to download a new eclipse specially for Java EE IDE web developer? If yes, which should I be downloading? E.g luma or etc etc. Will it overwrite my current eclipse program that I have on my computer for my core Java? I am afraid that my current eclipse program will get affected.
Thanks in advance. Sorry, I'm new and unfamiliar with the software and how in doing it.
Eclipse IDE is extensible or modular. If you didn't get the Java EE version initially, you can simply install into your existing IDE the support for Java EE. To do so, go to Help > Install Software... , on the installation dialog, show the Neon repository and find ymthe various extensions related to Java EE and Web development. Select them and click install. Upon restart, you'll get the Java EE support there.
I'm writing server-application in java which needs to run on ec2 of amazon. I read somewhere i need to open dynamic web project, but i don't have this option in eclipse. my eclipse version is .
I tried to install through help -> install new software the package "Web Tools Platforms" from http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/indigo
but it failed in the middle of the installation.
Somebody can help me with that?
thanx!!
You need the one labelled Eclipse for Java EE Developers that one lets you create web projects.
Also see this & this. It will help you..
Not all of them are required (I think), but after installing the components listed below I got the "Dynamic Web Project" template added to my Eclipse (Indigo). The list is:
Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
Eclipse Web Developer Tools
Eclipse XML Editors and Tools
You can install those packages by clicking on "Help" > "Install New Software", selecting the repository that corresponds to your Eclipse build (i.e http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for Indigo). The packages are grouped under "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development".
I want to write a java web application using NetBeans 7.0.1, but i can't find the option Java Web in File -> New Project. Do i need to get any special Java edition to do that?
Go to the Tools menu and select Plugins.
Click on the "Available Plugins" tab.
Check the box for "Java EE Base" (note: on older NetBeans versions, the plugin to install was called "Java Web Applications").
Click the "Install" button.
Click your way through the dialogs until the plugin and its dependencies are installed.
Restart the IDE.
You should now find "Java Web" in File -> New Project.
Go to the Tools menu and select Plugins.
Click on the "Available Plugins" tab.
Check the box for "Java EE Base".
Click the "Install" button.
Select "Web Projects" from plugin list
Check the term & condition checkbox
Click next and wait while NetBeans downloading the plugin
Restart IDE
My answer will provide images for you to understand easily.
Go to Tools -> Plugins like this image
In Plugins windows, select Available Plugins tab, choose and install Java EE Base like this image
Now just follow the instruction and install the plugin, when it's done, restart the Netbeans, then you can create Java Web Application like this image
I had problems while finding the plugins under the Available plugins tab. The reason was under the settings tab, the three checkboxes were unchecked. I checked them all and then I can see the plugins under the Available plugins Tab.
And then I followed the steps mentioned in other answers. Hope this is also useful to this context.
Well, maybe you cant find Java Web in the installation list, so, search for Java EE Base, in Netbeans 7.x is the option, and includes the comment that includes Java Web and EE.
regards
If you have NetBeans 8.2+ and installed the EE edition, open the plugin panel from Tools -> Plugins. Go to the installed tab and check the Java EE Base plugin. Then activate that plugin.
If you need other options as well the select all the plugins under the Web and Java EE category and activate them.
In my case Above mentioned thing didn't worked for me.
I have installed multiple JDK (JDK version 8 and 9) due to which Netbeans 8.2 might not working as expected and then I was unable to create project.
Then I removed JDK9 and cleared cache from \Users\admin\AppData in windows.
Then I was able to create Java Project.
I downloaded a plain eclipse which does not have java ee prospective. Now I want to add Java EE in ecipse. How can I do it?
I want add tomcat as a server in eclipse.
Just install those plugins you need via the project update site:
Help > Install New Software...
In the Work with: drop-down select your release (in my case Indigo 3.7.1), wait a few seconds and eclipse shows you all plugins available under the project's umbrella. Then select the plugins you need:
If you're going to be using Spring, you can download the Springsource Tool Suite from here.
I just installed Eclipse at home, so I can program servlets. But it seems that I don't have the new Web applciation option, and many others.
Anyone knows what's the problem ? I install it first in Program Files then on C:\. Still the same problem.
Btw, I am using Windows XP, with Eclipse Helios Service Release 2.
Did you download the version that includes WTP (Web Tools Platform). If not you will have to add the appropriate features.
Which version of Eclipse did you download? There are several different distributions (Eclipse Classic, Eclipse for Java Developers, etc.). You should make sure you downloaded the "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers".
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/heliossr2
To program servlets you need Eclipse for Java EE developers, and DON'T forget a server like Apache Tomcat, or Glassfish, which I guess are not included with the original package of eclipse.
Personally I have manage to install Tomcat separately from Eclipse and then link it with the IDE. There are plenty of tutorials on youtube:
