"New Project", "Web Application with existing sources" or "Web Application" Wizard does not work properly under my WinXP environment. The dialog informs that "project folder is read only" for several folders I select. Hence, the "next" button remains locked and I cannot create my project! Aparently the IDE reconizes some folders as if they are system folders or locked by OS. Other related issue I found : 60774 Thanks, Lucas
Does the same thing happen for Java Project in the same directory? Could you please try it in root directory (e.g. C:\TestProjects). If it fails, please investigate which directory access right is reason of your failure. Thanks!
Thanks, It seems that the WinXP locks some directories without asking anything. A "green square" (not a normal check mark) appears in the "read-only" property of the directory and, no matter how many times you uncheck this property, the IDE still recognizes the directory as read-only. To solve this trouble, I had to a) rename the old directory, b) create a new directory with the old name and then the wizard worked.
OK, then marking as WontFix since it is problem of Java/WinXP. Thanks for investigation.
