I know similar issues has been posted already in SO but unfortunately none of them helped actually.

Facing :

Project facet Java version 1.7 is not supported

Current Environment :

Server : Tomcat 7

JDK and JRE :1.6

Eclipse : JUNO

And as per the doc it seems like Tomcat 7 should support JDK 6

Ref : https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/building.html

I checked JRE which my project pointing to

Window --> Preferences --> Java --> Installed JRE

and its pointing to JRE1.6.

Any kind of help will be appreciated.

"Project facet Java version 1.7 is not supported" is what you are facing ... if you don't have JDK 7 how will the the required facet be supported – Lalit Mehra
Check your Project Settings in Eclipse, perhaps 1.7 is configured there... – tom

Right Click on Project -> Properties -> Project Facets Your project Java version here should be same as Java compiler version Right Click on Project -> Properties -> Java Compiler

Based on your input that you want to use JDK 1.16, same should be the version of your Java Compiler and Project Facet Java version.

You can edit the java version of your run time (server)environment

In eclipse, goto Windows->Preferences->server->run time environment->select the server on the right side window->edit->In java home->select jdk1.7.0_79 path->finish
