I am trying to enable JSP checking in my IntelliJ IDEA, version 12.1.4, Community edition. I read on their page where this is possible, but it does not work for me, so I know that I need to change the settings. I looked at the JSP debugging in IntelliJ IDEA , but for the old version and the directions / settings in question I cannot find. Here's what they say on their website: JSP validation
All JSP pages from a web application can be checked using the Jasper built-in JSP compiler. Validation is called as part of the make / rebuild / compile actions you can invoke in
JSP development is the same as for direct Java development. If an error is detected, a convenient view allows you to go directly to its occurrence on the corresponding JSP page, opening the page in the JSP editor if necessary.
But he does not tell you how to turn it on!
