I don't have "Dynamic Web Project" option in Eclipse new Project wizard

Not all of them are required (I think), but after installing the components listed below I got the "Dynamic Web Project" template added to my Eclipse (Indigo). The list is:

  • Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
  • Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
  • Eclipse Web Developer Tools
  • Eclipse XML Editors and Tools

You can install those packages by clicking on "Help" > "Install New Software", selecting the repository that corresponds to your Eclipse build (i.e http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for Indigo). The packages are grouped under "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development".


I think you need the Web Tools Platform package for this. Not very sure though. You can add it to your current eclipse through Help > install new software.

Then add the software repository site location for WTP for your version of eclipse. This is how you can install plugins in eclipse.
