Tomcat version 7.0 only supports J2EE 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and Java EE 5 and 6 Web modules

Question

I\'m trying to deploy a very simple HTTPServlet project using Tomcat 7 in my Eclipse J2EE perspective. I am getting the error \"Tomcat version 7.0 only supports J2EE 1.2, 1.

Answer 1

For Tomcat 8.5 if you are facing this issue, change your facet setting to 3.1

Open file : {project_Folder}/.setting/org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core

Open org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core XML file. Change to version as 3.1 Save and refresh the project you will find it you can add the resource to tomcat.

This worked for me.. Thanks
