Omnet++ 5.2 mac installation : Error - java

I follow all steps of the installation guide and when I try to open the omnet get this error:
An error ha ocurred. See the log file Users/xxxX/omnetpp-5.2/ide/omnetpp.app/Contents/Eclipse/configuration/1509461950402.log
The log file contains that:

I had the same problem(s;) and I think it's due to java.version=9.0.1 which does not work well with Eclipse coming with OMNeT++. My solution was as follows:
Install java8 using brew as described here. I.e.,
brew tap caskroom/versions
brew cask install java8
Update $PATH pointing to java8
export PATH=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_152.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/:$PATH
After that I didn't get the error documented in ..omnetpp-5.2/samples/.metadata/.log and OMNeT++ IDE did start. Hope this helps...


Now Omnet starts opening, the window to choose the workspace appears and it get me this error:See the log file

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException in Eclipse using JDI Debug Model version3.17.0.v20201117-1145

I was using Eclipse 2020-12 with OpenJDK 14 under Windows 10 without problem until some days ago, now I can't open or use any function which use JDI due to a ClassNotFoundException (ie: setup run configurations, launch a server, open debug preferences, etc).
I don't remember doing nothing in particular and to be sure I've done a clean install with a brand new workspace: after the first run, leaving eclipse untouched, the problem reappear: simply opening eclipse, going to java debug preferences, closing eclipse, reopening it and doing the same thing trigger the error.
This is the exception stacktrace:

and there is the session data:
eclipse.buildId=4.18.0.I20201202-1800
java.version=14.0.1
java.vendor=AdoptOpenJDK
BootLoader constants: OS=win32, ARCH=x86_64, WS=win32, NL=es_UY
Framework arguments: -product org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
Command-line arguments: -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86_64 -product org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
It seems to me some kind of incompatibility between org.eclipse.jdt.debug version 3.17.0.v20201117-1145 and JDK. I'm going to do further tests, but if someone can point me to a solution it will be very appreciated.
Should I open a bug?
UPDATE: using OpenJDK 15 resolves the issue, so it's definitely something between latest Eclipse and OpenJDK 14.

Eclipse does not recognize .java files

Short Version:
Couldn't start eclipse
Deleted some snap and tree files
Can open eclipse but it can't find my files “Cannot determine URI for [project-name]/[file-path]/[file-name]”
Can't reimport them as Eclipse is unable to recognize .java files
Long Version:
It all started with this Error message this morning (took the latest one):

This seemed to have caused the Problem:
!MESSAGE The workspace exited with unsaved changes in the previous session; refreshing workspace to recover changes.
I solved the Problem by deleting (and backupping) .snap and .tree files.:
this
and this
That resulted in the next problem I'm having right now.
I tried solving the problem by reimporting my projects as "Smug" advised in this post here:
Btw. I organize my projects into java working sets. Don't know if that makes any difference.

Solved the problem by following the advice of those two:
Jay:
"so I am a little late for the party, but I fixed that on reimporting my projects.
Under File->Import.. you choose General->Import existing Projects into workspace. On the next page you set your workspace directory as the root directory for importing, which will give you a warning like "Some projects already exist in workspace". Ignore this and click finish. After that all my projects where back in my workspace.
Good luck"
Eclipse Error: Cannot determine URI for /project-path/
and
Rekinyz:
"Uncheck the "copy projects into workspace" checkbox, and then click "refresh" button, you will be able to import the project".
Some projects cannot be imported because they already exist in the workspace error in Eclipse
If you use working sets, remember to reimport all the projects in the right ones...

Eclipse stopped working after i downloaded a standalone STS

My eclipse oxygen stopped working today after i downloaded an unrelated, standalone version of Spring Tools Suite. When trying to run it, i get the following popup dialog: "Error opening Welcome dialog: Failed to create improved startup dialog, falling back to Eclipse standard dialog. Please check Eclipse configuration logs for details.". Here is the error code generated in txt file by eclipse:

Eclipse is a framework. STS is (from the link) a customized all-in-one Eclipse based distribution that makes application development easy. Your assertion that Eclipse is unrelated to Eclipse is just unfounded. The only solution I know is to point to different workspaces if you really need to have separate Eclipse instances.

An error has occured. Please see log file - eclipse oxygen and mac [duplicate]

I like to use eclipse oxygen for java development. I haven't used this IDE for a about year. I remember really liking it. However, I remember it not being the easiest IDE to install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the java I have installed.

I have no idea what is going on. Please feel free to suggest another IDE.

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.

Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM

Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.

Eclipse won't start after choosing workspace path [duplicate]

To run Eclipse with Java 9 you need to modify the 'eclipse.ini' file in your Eclipse installation and add the line:
--add-modules=java.se.ee
as a line following the -vmargs line in the file. This adds the Java 9 module containing the missing classes.
You can also use
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
See Eclipse Wiki: Configure Eclipse for Java 9.
Eclipse Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a) is due to be released on 11 October (2017) with full Java 9 support.

Your eclipse.ini should contain something like:
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM

Java 9 has some subtle changes that large programs tend to have problems with. Eclipse has issues both with running under Java 9 and using Java 9 as the Java Runtime Environment in the Workspace.
Until a official version of Eclipse supporting Java 9 comes out (apparently at October 11th), non-power users may have a better experience by downgrading to Java 8.
