I’m just creating a new web project, I Eclipse Version: 3.1.2. MyEclipseIde 4.1.1GA. When I add struts capabilities everything goes well except that it’s not adding struts jar to project classpath. So I cannot do anything. I just installed eclipse and myeclipseide plugin

Go to your project properties then Java Build Path > Libraries, click Add then drill down to your WEB-INF/lib dir and add them all manually.

There is a setting under Window > Prefs > MyEclipse > J2EE Projects > Web Projects to auto mount libraries for you, check to make sure it’s enabled.

If “auto mount” means: “Automatically add WEB-INF/Lib/…” set to “Yes”:

Even this flag is set, it will not add/mount anything. Bug?

Can you see the JARs when you switch to your navigator view? Try refreshing your project from the root, if you are copying the resources in using an external process, it’s possible it is flying in under Eclipse’s radar.

Otherwise, yes, sounds like a bug. List off ALL the files (not just JAR, but ALL) the files in your /lib dir for me from the navigator view. We had a bug a while back where if there were non-JAR files in there, the auto-mount feature didn’t work, but that was fixed in version 3.8.4 or 4.0, I don’t recall.

I’m a newbie, what is a “navigator view”???

Directory of C:\eclipse\XXX\WebRoot\WEB-INF\lib

I only use the wizrads to create and update the project, so I don’t start an external process.

sorry it’s actually the “Navigation” view, but it’s not important, the listing you gave me looks good. Just to save you the time, open your project properties, go to Java Build Path, then the Libraries tab. Click “Add” then drill down and select all the JARs under WEB-INF/lib and hit OK.

I did so.

See our other thread in “J2EE-Development”, switching to a new workspace solves the prob.
