I'm trying to set up the Glassfish server on Eclipse but have had no luck. I'm on Java version 10.0.1

Steps:
1. Open Eclipse
2. Go to Help > Eclipse Marketplace
3. Search for GlassFish
4. Click on Install
5. Glassfish Tools and oracle.eclipse.tools.glassfish is selected. Click Confirm.

Result:
Installation progress bar says "Cannot perform operation. Computing alternate solutions, may take awhile." It eventually finishes and says "Cannot complete the request. See error logs for details."

Not sure where to find the error logs. I get this same error on both Eclipse Photon & Oxygen.

We too would need to see the error log for details. Type "Error Log" in the "Quick Access" search box to the upper right of the perspective for the view of the error log.

If you don't have an Error Log view, the file itself is at <workspace location>/.metadata/.log . The view would only be present if you had the Plug-in Development Environment installed.
