It is frustrating when you want to create your First JSP project in Eclipse and don’t find the “dynamic web project” option under project list. Well, in this tutorial, we will see step by step solution to this problem.
Step 1: Click on Help and then click on “Install New Software”.
Step 2: In Work with paste this link: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars
Please note that the link I have provided would work on Eclipse mars only so change the link according to your Eclipse version, for example for the Eclipse Kepler the link would be http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler
Step 3: Scroll down to find “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development” option and expand it.
Step 4: Select the following three options under “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development”
- Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
- Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
- Eclipse Web Developer Tools
Step 5: Click next and you would see that the software are installing. Wait for some time and then a popup would ask your permission to restart the Eclipse. Restart it and you would find the dynamic web project option under project list.
