Answer 1

Had the same problem , here's the steps I followed to fix it. make sure the system is using jre 7, I uninstalled jdk 1.8 and jre 8. make sure you run eclipse using jre 7. I'm running eclipse EE 4.4.0. in eclipse go to>>windows>>preferences>> - java>>installed JREs>>: Add JRE 7 dir then select it - java>>compiler: java compliance level 1.7

The most important step after doing what's stated above is to switch to a new workspace. File>> switch workspace>> Other: type the dir of the new workspace.

After eclipse start, just run the server. If you import projects from the old workspace later, make sure you clean and build the project after moving it.
