I currently have no JSPWiki checked out in Eclipse, last I had is a while ago from cvs - I've never touched JSPWiki svn. However, I've converted quite a few projects. This is what you do: * Check out project from svn * Convert it to a dynamic web project. There is a menu item that promises to do just that (Project/Convert to Dynamic Web Project). Unfortunately it is almost always inaccessible and useless. To manually convert a project one way is to manipulate the .project file. Create a new dynamic web project and examine its .project file, compare it with your own (especially the natures and builders section) You might need some of the entries from the .settings directory, especially the facet pieces. When you're done with manipulating these files, you most likely need to examine the project properties, esp. the "J2EE Module Dependencies" and flag several needed jars to be exported to the web applications WEB-INF/lib. Check all sections in the project properties dialog if the settings seem somehow plausible. I hope, this helps. Most likely there is more, but this should get you started and point to some of the places to watch. There /must/ be an easier way, only I've never found it... Cheers, Olaf
