If you try to execute a JSP or HTML which is not inside webmodule, exception is thrown. You can't create a JSP outside webmodule in IDE, but you can copy it or mount folder with JSPs. However you can create HTML in IDE outside webmodule and execute it (this is filled as another bug).
I forgot the exception. Annotation: Exception occurred in Request Processor java.lang.NullPointerException at org.netbeans.modules.j2ee.deployment.execution.ServerExecutor.execute(ServerExecutor.java:54) at org.openide.loaders.ExecutionSupport.start(ExecutionSupport.java:88) at org.netbeans.modules.j2ee.deployment.execution.ServerExecSupport.start(ServerExecSupport.java:130) at org.openide.actions.ExecuteAction.execute(ExecuteAction.java:135) at org.openide.actions.ExecuteAction.execute(ExecuteAction.java:213) at org.openide.actions.ExecuteAction.access$100(ExecuteAction.java:41) at org.openide.actions.ExecuteAction$1.run(ExecuteAction.java:100) at org.openide.util.Task.run(Task.java:136) at org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Task.run(RequestProcessor.java:330) [catch] at org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Processor.run(RequestProcessor.java:680)
