title: Why won't eclipse oxygen start (for the first time)?
body: <p>I like to use eclipse oxygen for java development. I haven't used this IDE for a about year. I remember really liking it. However, I remember it not being the easiest IDE to install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the java I have installed.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Java 9 Java</li>
  <li>SE Development Kit 9</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I have no idea what is going on. Please feel free to suggest another IDE.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the log file:</p>
