I have installed java 7 version and my JAVA_HOME points to java7 as well. How to get rid of these errors?

I am updated Java home to point to java7.

You might have multiple versions of java and orion might be picking the latest one. You can update the orion.ini config file which will be at /Applications/SAPWebIDE/eclipse/orion.app/Contents/MacOS/orion.ini. Add the following just before -vmargs attribute:

-vm
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk<java7version>.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java

Make sure jdk directory is points to java7 and both of these are in different lines.
