Start up errors with Oracle Weblogic Server plugin for Eclipse Luna

Question

We have an existing project which we built using Eclipse Indigo and the relevant weblogic server plugin. This was done four years back and we are trying to migrate to the Eclipse Luna. The project imports and everything works fine until I add the weblogic server tools plugin for Eclipse Luna or a lower version and restart eclipse. It starts complaining "An internal error occurred during"

Building Workspace
Initializing Java Tooling
Validating project
AppXray Indexing (This I could fix by disabling from Windows->Preferences->Oracle->AppXray)

The resulting application EAR is deployed on Oracle Weblogic Server 10gR3. Any help with resolving the issues will be highly appreciated. I know the problem is with the Oracle Weblogic Server tool plugin for Eclipse Luna as the moment I remove it I do not see any errors. I have tried cleaning up .metadata and then relaunching eclipse but still the error starts ocurring.

UPDATE: Below is the exception stacktrace that I found from the .log file within .metadata. I am not able to understand anything from the log. Can anyone help?

Look for a more detailed error message in the .log file in the workspace .metadata directory — greg-449, Apr 29 '15 at 10:31
have provided the log file content, can anybody help further on this? — Sayantan, May 05 '15 at 10:12

After experiencing this problem on our team I thought I would post the solution we found.

This occurred when we moved from a Luna based IDE to the Mars SR1 release. We tracked it down to a file that was in source control.

.settings/oracle.eclipse.tools.weblogic.syslib.xml

Once deleted eclipse would start happily, and we were good to go. One developer tracked the issue down to a single line inside the file.

<module id="javax.persistence" javadoc="http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/api"/>

If that single <module> line is commented out the eclipse oepe error goes away. FYI, you won't see this error when importing the project, just on every restart after the project has been pulled down.

This could be the solution, did not face the issue after upgrading to Mars — Sayantan, Jan 06 '17 at 22:25
