Another option is    Project   Properties   Java Build Path Select Libraries tab Select the troublesome JRE entry Click Edit button Choose an alternate JRE Click Finish button   Pointing the project at your installed JRE might be a better choice than renaming your JRE to match the old project code

This is like user3076252 s answer  but you ll be choosing a different set of options    Project   Properties   Java Build Path Select Libraries tab   Alternate JRE   Installed JREs    Click  Search   Unless you know the exact folder name  you should choose a drive to search    It should find your unbound JRE  but this time with all the numbers in it s name  rather than unbound   and you can select it  It will take a while to search the drive  but you can stop it at any time  and it will save the results  if any

I too faced the same issue  I followed the following steps to resolve my issue -  Right click on your project - gt  Properties Select Java Build Path in the left menu Select Libraries tab Under the module path  select the troublesome JRE entry Click on Edit button Select Workspace default JRE  Click on Finish button  If the above steps don t work for you  instead of Workspace default JRE  you can choose an Alternate JRE and give the path to the JRE that you want to point

oh boy  this got resolved  I just had to name my Installed JRE appropriately  I had only the jdk installed and eclipse had taken the default jdk name  i renamed it to JavaSE-1 6 and voila it worked  though i had to redo everthing from the scratch
