The selected App Engine SDK is not valid

I am trying to create an Google Web application project in Eclipse and in the initial step of the wizard I get the following error.

The selected App Engine SDK is not valid: SDK directory '/path_to_directory/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_4.3.0_1473617060_linux_gtk_x86_64/plugins/com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle_1.8.6/appengine-java-sdk-1.8.6' does not exist

I tried updating the AppEngine and now have App Engine 1.8.8 and then tried to manually configure the SDK. However, it said that it failed to initialize the SDK. I am using java-oracle-7 and have set the JDK compiler compliance level at 1.7.

How do I get it to recognize the SDK?

it looks like same with my problem, you can follow my steps:

  1. Download SDK v1.8.6 (https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/downloads/detail?name=appengine-java-sdk-1.8.6.zip&can=1&q=)
  2. Create folder "com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle_1.8.6" in '/path_to_directory/eclipse/plugins/'
  3. Unzip SDK v1.8.6 in '/path_to_directory/eclipse/plugins/com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle_1.8.6/'

  4. Create file "SdkBundleRegistrant.properties" under '/path_to_directory/eclipse/plugins/com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle_1.8.6/' folder and type the following code:

    sdkType=GAE
sdkBundlePath=appengine-java-sdk-1.8.6

  5. Create file 'MANIFEST.MF' under '/path_to_directory/eclipse/plugins/com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle_1.8.6/META-INF/' and type following code:

    Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2
Bundle-Name: Google App Engine Java SDK
Bundle-SymbolicName: com.google.appengine.eclipse.sdkbundle
Bundle-Version: 1.8.6
Bundle-Vendor: Google Inc.
Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.core.runtime
Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment: J2SE-1.5
Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy

  6. Restart eclipse

AppEngine SDK doesn't comes under eclipse plugin. so that, we have to download manually from the below URL and configure it under project -> properties -> App engine SDK.
