Answer 1

In my case I was upgrading a project to use Maven and run under Payara 5. Removing then re adding the JRE from the project build path made the error go away, but each time I changed the build path (removing one library at a time in favor of Maven POM entry) the error came back.

This worked for me: Properties -> Project Facets -> Runtimes tab Changed to Payara 5 Runtime.

Answer 2

In my case, it occurred before I update Maven Project. In eclipse I do this:

Project → Properties → Java Build Path → Edit JRE System Library:

Select Workspace default JRE

I noticed that every time when I Update Maven, the problem occurs again. And I have to do everything again.

What have I to do for not need repeat the steps again, after Update Maven Project?

i just removed JRE system library from my project build path and re added. just the error message disappears, how it happened i don't know but my error got resolved.
