Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse does not work for JDK 1.7 - eclipse-plugin

I need to install OEPE into Eclipse STS (luna) using JDK 1.7. I did this 2 months ago without a problem but had to recently reinstall. I get the error, 'Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse requires Java 8 or higher'. I need to find the older version of OEPE that works with JDK 1.7.
I saw that the current OEPE installs 'Oracle WebLogic Scripting Tools' and 'Oracle WebLogic Server Tools' with version 7.3.4. I remember that when I previously (successfully) installed OEPE into STS, the versions for these were 7.3.3. I googled and found Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse 12.1.3.4 and installed it from there. I saw that the versions of the above 2 items are now 7.3.3 but ... I still receive the same error.
Note:
- STS: Version: 3.6.4.RELEASE Build Id: 201503100339 Platform: Eclipse Luna SR1 (4.4.2)
- My weblogic install is weblogic 12c
Any help?
Thanks,
Bill

Hi I am getting the error in anypoint studio version 6.4.2

Errors occurred during the build.
Errors running builder 'Mule Builder' on project 'flex-data-mapper'.
javax/xml/bind/JAXBException
The java version i am using is java 11
and the AnypointStudio.ini file is
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.100.v20150511-1540.jar
--launcher.library

Current version of Anypoint Studio (6.6.5 and 7.6.0 at this time) do not support Java 11 to start the IDE. You should use AdoptOpenJDK 8, though another Java/OpenJDK 8 will probably work as well. After it starts you can configure Java 11 to run a Mule 4.2.0 or later version projects. Earlier versions of Mule don't support Java 11. That means that any project in Studio 6.x is not compatible with Java 11 either, because it only runs Mule 3.x applications.
As a sidenote, if you are still using Mule 3.x, then I recommend to download Studio 6.6.5 as a new install, because of the number of fixes since Studio 6.4.2. It can't be upgraded inside Studio.

Issues installing MobileFirst Studio v7.1

Trying to install MobileFirst Studio v7.1.0 into clean Eclipse install -- either Mars (v5.1) or Luna (v4.4.2). Receiving error when trying to confirm the features indicating missing requirements. Any thoughts or reasons for this?
This has been identified as a defect introduced in a recent iFix and is in the process of being fixed. I will update this answer once a fixed version will be available via Eclipse Marketplace.
As a workaround you can install an older release and then select to update it using the "faulty" release through Eclipse Marketplace. The update will work as the problem manifests itself only in new installations.
For reference, this is APAR - PI54604 CANNOT INSTALL MOBILEFIRST PLATFORM STUDIO 7.1 ON ECLIPSE.

configuring worklight with eclipse

I'm configuring my eclipse with the worklight with this steps while doing that i'm getting the above error as shown in the image.
1) Worklight is pretty specific to which editions and versions of eclipse are known to work. Running with other editions or versions can lead to unpredictable results. For the current version of IBM Worklight Studio (v6.2), which is on Eclipse Marketplace, double check to ensure you have:
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
Juno SR2 (4.2.2), Kepler SR1 (4.3.1), Kepler SR2 (4.3.2), or Luna R (4.4).
as described in the Developer Edition overview. Also check the other system requirements listed there.
2) You cannot upgrade to Worklight Studio V6.2 from an earlier version of Worklight Developer Edition.
3) Google "MD5 Hash Eclipse". There are lots of suggestions (make sure you're running eclipse as administrator, check your firewall, check your java version, etc.)
4) Could be a corrupted download by eclipse. Try downloading the IBM Worklight Studio 6.2 zip file and installing it as a local archive within Eclipse.
I believe these are network problems. You should try later or in a different network connection.
By the way, I highly recommend to use an Eclipse Java EE version.

Using Worklight Studio Plugin with Rational Application Developer

Is it possible to use the Worklight Studio plugin for eclipse with IBM's Rational Application Developer IDE (8.5).
It depends on the Worklight Studio version you are trying to use.
If you try to install the latest available version from Eclipse marketplace (the developer edition which is 6.1.0.1), then it won't be possible, since RAD 8.5 uses Eclipse 3.6 while Worklight Studio needs to be installed on 4.2.2
An older version of Worklight Studio would allow you to do that combination, but if you are willing to do a migration, the best would be to get some flavor or RAD 9 (which is based on Eclipse 4.2, then compatible with Worklight Studio).

Can Worklight Studio 6.0 and Worklight Studio 6.1 be installed on the same machine

I have a laptop running Windows 7 Pro. Is it safe to install both WL studio 6.0 and 6.1 on the same laptop? If it is safe to have both versions installed can the Android SDKs be shared between the installs or should each version of WL studio have its own install of the Android SDKs.
Thank you for any advice you can provide.
You can easily install multiple versions of WL studio on 1 machine, just use a fresh install of Eclipse for each version. Creating separate workspaces inside of eclipse will have the same version of WL across all workspaces so you will need multiple Eclipse instances to accomplish this. In regards to your Android SDK question you can point each eclipse instance to the same Android SDK, but you will need to install the android tools on each version in order to work properly.
Please make sure you are running the latest 6.0.0.x ifix when attempting to run at the same time as some issues were resolved in this version. If you are an IBM WL customer please request the latest fix pack containing this fix.
Also, ensure you install the right version of Eclipse for each Worklight Studio version. Worklight 6.0 only runs on eclipse 4.2.2 (Juno SR2), while Worklight 6.1 runs on either eclipse 4.2.2 or eclipse 4.3.1 (Kepler SR1). See System Requirements for detailed requirements for all Worklight versions.
