Which project settings should I enable to let IDEA recognize create index.jsp from predefined template?
Answered
At the moment I just wanna create jsp page (I definitely remember I was able to do so last year), but idea creates empty file without useful minimal skeleton...
So how can I create fresh new jsp file with that content on at least add that content in empty created file index.jsp?
I'm using latest IDEA ultimate
Thanks in advice

Hello Maksim,
So, you run "New - JSP" and it creates empty file? Do you face this problem with every project (even new simple web project)? Could you please share idea.log ("Help | Show Log in...") after restarting IDE and reproducing the issue?
Hello Ярослав,
Thanks for web project hint, but no, -- option add new JSP was not available at all.
I played a little bit with IDEA, and finally found solution: Seems like there is only requirement to project: it must have WAR packaging type. Just adding Web Facet is not enough.
Maksim,
JSP is suggested for folders that are set as "Web Resources Directory" in Web facet settings. In this case it should work even you have "pom" packaging type.
Got it. Thanks. I will try do that and let you know if issue will be fixed
Now I can confirm that requirements are:
1. add web facet to a module
2. in that faced settings 'web resources directory' settings should have entry point to folder where WEB-INF located (in my case it was: /absolute/path/to/project/src/main/webapp)
Thank you for your support!
Maksim,
You are welcome!
