I have found similar problems on the web, but none of the posted solutions appear to work.
I am attempting to run my web application under jetty instead of always building and running in tomcat to test because our build takes 18 minutes. :(
This is a drools project and I am running under Eclipse Indigo SR2. I am trying to run under Jetty 6.1.26 and Spring Framework 2.5.6.
I have created the debug configuration with the following system parms in the vm args section in https://community.jboss.org/wiki/RulesTomcat:
-Djava.naming.factory.initial=org.mortbay.naming.InitialContextFactory -Ddrools.compiler=JANINO
Here is one of the many similar errors I'm getting:

The problem is that you are using an incompatible combination of libraries.
The class org.drools.commons.jci.compilers.EclipseJavaCompiler is trying to use org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.CompilationResult.getProblems()[Lorg/eclipse/jdt/core/compiler/CategorizedProblem
but that method doesn't exist in the Eclsipe library you are using.
