How to get rid of "javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext cannot be resolved to type" on jsp page with Eclipse?

I have this weird error on a .jsp page in eclipse:

javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext cannot be resolved to a type

My project is a maven project , imported into "as an existing maven project , in juno with m2e and m2e-wtp .

Is this a m2e plugin bug? If so, what is the possible workaround to get rid of this error (and the red mark in the workspace explorer)?

Otherwise, do I need to tell maven that my project contains jsp pages? And hopefully the m2e plugin will add the correct library to the classpath. If so, how?

After updating to Kepler and updating all the plugins, the problem disappeared. It was probably a mistake.

The solution that worked for me is given in this answer . Go to project properties> Target runtimes> Check the box for the runtime (Apache Tomcat 7 in my case).
All this. Just create a project now and everything will be fine.
