Not on the original issue but I noticed that this happens, when woproject (i.e. 
the ant/maven/gradle builder) cannot find WebObjects. It then falls back to 
assuming an older version of WO and builds a different launch script. Check if 
your WO is still setup properly and your Library/wobuild.properties are setup 
correctly. This can be especially irritating when not embedding frameworks 
and/or building with maven/gradle as the WO dependencies are all present but 
the launch script just is different.

Seems like this is more related to ant not working properly with Java 6 
anymore; you need to run using at least Java 7 but you should be able to target 
your builds to 1.6 (i.e. Java 6) by adding the appropriate parts to your ant 
file. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=474386 
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=474386> has some more 
information and further links on the whole ant-mars-java7 issue.

Have you cleaned everything? This is usually a Java 6 compiler / runtime trying 
to work on classes compiled with Java 7. Probably there are some Java7-compiled 
files around.

Note that Java 6 and 7 are already (at least publicly) end of life so you 
should at least evaluate if there are any problems running on 7 or even 8.

Greetings
Dennis
