Windows 11 and Eclipse install [message #1857109]

My Eclipse is not working properly. I am getting an error message on my console that :

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer

java.lang.LayerInstantiationException: Package jdk.internal.jimage in both module jrt.fs and module java.base

I have reloaded the software to the latest version from the website and which is
Version: 2022-12 (4.26.0)

Build id: 20221201-1913

I am running windows 11 and on a Lenovo laptop. Here is the test program that I ran to see if it would run a simple program.
public class VendorChange {

public static void main(String[] args) {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

System.out.println("Hello World !!!!");

}

}

Can you assist me with this problem?

Thank you,

George F. Bingham II

This doesn't sound like a problem with the IDE but rather a problem with your application or how you have configured the classpath/module path for launcher. Google "java.lang.LayerInstantiationException: Package jdk.internal.jimage in both module jrt.fs and module java.base" and you'll find others how have this problem, e.g.,

If you have a module-info.java, you might try to delete it.
