I had this problem because I copied the libraries manually and directly into the folder WEB-INF/lib of the project and eclipse doesn't see them (I suggest you copy any necessary libraries into WEB-INF/lib only through eclipse!). So only a refresh of the project solved the problem for me because all the other solutions didn't work!!

(I'm using Eclipse Kepler unber Ubuntu)

Answer 2

In ECLIPSE: Right click on the project and select the option "Validate". That's all.

Answer 3

This is probably Eclipse getting a bit 'confused' rather than a genuine error.

I had the same thing yesterday when working through a Struts 2 tutorial, but it disappeared after opening/closing the JSPs.

Answer 4

The same thing happened to me. I am using Maven to compile. So, I disabled and re-enabled Maven in my project and that solved it.

Answer 5

I faced similar problem. This is what I did to resolve the issue.

1.Select Project and right click. 2.Click on properties. 3.Click on libraries tab. 4.Click on 'Add Jars'. 5.Add relavent jar for your error.

hope this helps. Thanks.
