Hi

"Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: The System Bundle could not be resolved: Missing Constraint: Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: J2SE-1.5"

If you really want Java 5 you should provide it.

IIRC this caused by non Java at all so that on Windows you fallback on msJava.

Regards

Actually, the problem appears to be the use of Java 9 which only works out of the box for Oxygen 1.a. Otherwise you need to follow the instructions in https://wiki.eclipse.org/Configure_Eclipse_for_Java_9#Configure_Eclipse_for_Java_9_modules

If I delete the default workspace (/home//workspace) and the start eclipse then everything works fine. Therefore I changed the default workspace to somewhere else and it worked charmly. In eclipse, go to File-> switch workspace and create another workspace somewhere Window-> Preferences-> General-> Startup and Shutdown-> Workspace then in the "Recent workspaces" window, remove your default workspace and apply your newly created workspace Hope this help

Your suggestion is not related to the problem. It's clear from eclipse.buildId=4.3.0.M20130911-1000 that the build is very old, and from java.version=9.0.1 that Java 9 is being used. No amount of deleting workspaces is going to make this work. Please try to keep your answers focused on the question topic.
