creating a project from existing source in jdeveloper

[Manon Baratt]

Hello,

I am new to Jdeveloper. I am using the 9i version. I have been given a zip file for a project to import into my jdeveloper. It contains two directories: apps and oracle. I created a workspace
and then tried to import these directories as a project. I am getting the error below:
Unable to determine the source path to file:
c:\jdevhome\jdev\myprojects\apps\fnd\framework\toolbox\tutorial\webui\CreatePoFOlderCO.java
The compiler and debugger may not be able to find this file.

Then I get a whole bunch of messages for xml files:
Unable to find the job xml file on the source or class path.
C:\jdevhome\jdev\myprojects\apps\fnd\framework\toolbox\tutorial\server\CreateAM.xml
Make sure that the file is on the project source or class path.

I have searched the oracle site and many others with no luck. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks in advance

If you find a workspace file (.jws) just go to File -> Open -> Application and open it.

If there is not a .jws file, then you should look for a project file (.jpr). So you should create an application first and then go to File -> Open -> Project and open it.

You should upgrade to JDeveloper 11g that is really better than 9g, unless this project is tightly related with a 9g technology.

The most appropriate place to get good answers is JDeveloper 11g Technology Preview Forum.

Thanks.
