Eclipse - eclipse-jee-photon-R-win32-x86_64
JDK - jdk-12 (I installed this one after I found that older jdk(1.6) was in Program Files (x86) folder and 32 bit, also I was getting another error earlier and found that the Java and Eclipse had to match, i.e. both 64 bit)

Full error -

java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry. The applications available are: org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner, org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.console.profile.StorageFileEditor, org.eclipse.emf.codegen.CodeGen, org.eclipse.emf.codegen.JMerger, org.eclipse.emf.codegen.ecore.Generator, org.eclipse.emf.importer.ecore.Ecore2GenModel, org.eclipse.emf.importer.java.Java2GenModel, org.eclipse.emf.importer.rose.Rose2GenModel, org.eclipse.equinox.app.error, org.eclipse.help.base.infocenterApplication, org.eclipse.help.base.helpApplication, org.eclipse.help.base.indexTool, org.eclipse.jdt.apt.core.aptBuild, org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCodeFormatter, org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaIndexer, org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.JavaCodeFormatter, org.eclipse.wst.server.preview.preview.

I checked for this error and found that following plug-ins had to be added -
org.eclipse.core.net
org.eclipse.ui.ide.application
but I already found them present in the plugins folder. I checked for Eclipse Photon and found that we can use Java 8 or newer, so not sure why the error is still coming. Any suggestion/help is appreciated.

Thanks

Java 9 made a lot of changes, as did every following release. Use a version contemporary with Java 12 like the current one, 2019-06, instead of one that's a year old like Photon.
