title: Project facet Java version 1.8 is not supported, Tomcat 9, Eclipse Oxygen
body: <p>I am currently having an issue with setting up a Tomcat server to run a Java 8 servlet. I've included snippets of the settings that are relevant to the issue. As you can see, I have jdk-1.8 installed and bound to the project build path. I have spent hours trying to figure out why Eclipse keeps saying Java 1.8 is not supported by Tomcat 9. If you look in at the project facets runtimes, you'll see that the server shows jre-1.7 even though I have set the path to the jre-1.8. I'm convinced this is where the issue is, but I have no idea how to fix it. I've tried setting the same Tomcat server up on another machine with no problems so I'm confused as to why it isn't working on this one. The major difference between the two is that the one that works properly shows jre-1.8 in the runtimes.</p>
  
  <p>I am using Eclipse Oxygen on Windows 10</p>
