If you get this error simply Right click on your project and go to
Properties -> Java Build Path

And select JRE System library and click remove button in your right hand side. In my case I have 2 JREs in my machine JRE7 and JRE8, but in this project I am using Tomcat 7 and workspace default JRE is JRE8 then it gives the above issue ‘Server Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost failed to start’.

To solve it I need to add JRE7 into my project except JRE8.After removing the existing one you need to add the relevant JRE.
Let’s see how to solve above problem. Simply Right click on your project and go to
Properties -> Java Build Path ->Add Library ->
