Solution 1:
- On your Eclipse IDE, go into Window > Preferences > Java > Installed JREs > and check your installed JREs. You should have an entry with a JDK there.
- Select the Execution Env as show below. Click OK
- Then Right-Click on your Project -> Maven -> Update Project
Solution 2:
- Set JAVA_HOME to JDK root - required if you run command line or maven(google for this variable)
- In project properties in section Java Compiller select required JDK - if you run directly from eclipse
Solution 3:
- Go into Run -> Run Configurations , select the Maven Build you are running (from the left panel). Then, click the JRE tab and select the option Workspace default JRE.
Solution 4:
- Open the project-specific libraries of the Java Build Path: Right-click "Project > Build Path > Configure Build Path..." and select "Libraries" tab.
- Select the "JRE System Library" entry and hit "Remove".
- Hit "Add Library...".
- A wizard pops up. Select "JRE System Library" and hit "Next >".
- Now select the correct JDK (in my case "Workspace default JRE", which I configured using a JDK).
- Close wizard by hitting "Finish".
- Close "Properties" dialog by hitting "OK".
