"Web application version is unsupported . Upgrade web.xml to version 2.4 or newer or use previous version of NetBeans."

How can i fix it please reply-

Answer 1

I had this Problem and I solved it in a rather curious way. I removed the web.xml file, Created the servlet and replaced the web.xml file and it worked.
