Build Identifier: 20100218-1602 The Web Page Editor throws an exception whenever I attempt to open a JSP file. So, I am trying to avert this by setting the default editor to be the JSP editor for the .JSP file type in Preferences using General->Editors->File Associations. (Please reference the screenshots. ) After every Eclipse restart, this setting is reset so the Web Page editor is back in there, even after I delete it, as the default. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Attempt to open a JSP file using dbl-click in navigator or ctrl-R (open resource) dialog. 2.Get the error. 3.Open the preferences window. 4.Remove the Web Page Editor as an option for .JSP files 5.Open the JSP file. JSP editor opens just fine. 6.Shut down Eclipse. 7. Start Eclipse with the same project. 8. Attempt to open JSP file again. 9. See error in step 2. Repeat steps 3-9 as many times as you like.
Created attachment 168753 [details] This is the default that is always set when I restart Eclipse.
Created attachment 168754 [details] This is what the config looks like after I remove the Web page Editor.
The IDE bucket is for generic IDE operations and views in the Eclipse platform such as the 'Problems' view.

Although now that I look at it in more detail it's possible this is an issue with content type detection or the editor registry. Anyway, I tried something similar on 3.6RC1 and the removal seems to stick. Maybe you can try the M7 Java EE package and see how that flies for you? http://eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/helios/m7
It is not reproducible on I20100608-0911 .Change in perference seems to stick.
This happens also for HTML files, every single time after a restart/fresh start of Eclipse. The setting is overwritten for both JSP and HTML files on restart. One important note which may or may not be a factor is that I am using a CUSTOM perspective.

Still not able to reproduce on M20100806-0800.Did you try on latest?
Two points here: 1)I am not able to reproduce it again on wtp 3.2.3.v201010160450 ,using eclipse build M20100909-0800. 2)That preference page is handled by FileEditorsPreferencePage, which is in org.eclipse.ui.workbench plugin.I debugged it, SSE is not at all involved here.Are you by any chance changing values of EditorRegistry at runtime?It is the class where all values are set etc by this preference page. Nick, can we close this as not reproducible, or transfer it to team handling org.eclipse.ui.workbench ? I think there is not much we can do here.
Rakesh and I have been unable to reproduce this in WTP 3.2.4 and WTP 3.3. If you're still seeing the problem with these versions, please reopen the defect. Thanks!
