Comment 2 EntilZhaPR 2011-06-09 04:04:09 UTC 
Is there a solution to this problem. I am creating a netbeans project and can't do anything because this error seems to be preventing me from doing so. I create a java ee web application and after I click finish after selecting frameworks nothing happens and all the options are grayed out except help.
Comment 3 Petr Jiricka 2011-06-09 13:40:30 UTC 
Thanks for the report, I never saw this problem before. Could you please attach the IDE log file? Are you saying that this happens with a clean IDE, when you create a web project for the first time?
Comment 4 David Konecny 2011-06-09 20:04:53 UTC 
javax.servlet.ServletContext.getJspConfigDescriptor() was added in Servlet 3.0. So it looks like older version of Servlet API jar is interfering.

Log file for reported defect

Here is the contents of the view->log for the error I reported. I was able to create my project etc. in 6.9.1 but haven't tried moving the project and using it in 7.0.
Comment 6 Petr Jiricka 2011-06-14 12:20:54 UTC 
It looks like you have several jar files (e.g. el-api.jar, jsp-api.jar, servlet-api.jar) under /Library/Java/Extensions, and these files are added to the classpath. Can you try removing these files and restarting the IDE to see if it helps?

Do you know why the files were added to this folder and what they are needed for? Thanks.
Comment 7 EntilZhaPR 2011-06-15 01:18:28 UTC 
That seems to have eliminated the issue. Some of the jars were added for a prior project that I was working on that I don't need anymore. Thanks for the help. I will comment again if it seems like it isn't working again.
Comment 8 Petr Jiricka 2011-06-15 08:00:29 UTC 
Ok, thanks for confirming. Resolving the issue as invalid.

123komal123, see http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207604#c3. It looks that you have copied additional servlet JAR into your JDK home.
