Can anyone help me out with this ?

That may be related to this thread

It looks like you have another version of java sdk installed on your machine (probably 1.4) and eclipse is launching with that instead of your 5.0 vm. You can try using a -vm parameter in the eclipse.ini file to specify the vm to run with.

(See this eclipse.ini to make sure of your JVM used to launch Eclipse)

On second thought, the "Caused by" errrors are quite clear:

org.eclipse.jst.jee.archive.ArchiveSaveFailureException:  
Error saving archive: WebComponentArchiveLoadAdapter,  
Component: P/Nautilus2 to output path: D:/Nautilus2.war 

and:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\myproject.war (Access is denied)

So do you have any ACL restrictions on D:\?

I know this is 5 years old, but people keep coming to this page for similar errors even today.

My solution (workaround) may help others:

1. Build project (the one you are exporting)
2. Close project.
3. Re-open the project.
4. Try exporting again.

This should work with EAR or WAR exporting options.
