Martin Malina commented on JBIDE-17960:
---------------------------------------

[~the_alchemist] I was unable to replicate the Starting... bug, because I was unable to achieve the strange/broken classpath entry in the launch config. So I am curious to see more details on how to reproduce this from scratch. Because the runtime dialog will not let me set an execution environment that doesn't contain a matching JRE. I even tried to select JavaSE-1.8 execution environment and then remove Java 1.8 from Eclipse. But then the linked JRE in launch config change to java 1.7 and the server still started normally.

So yes, I agree it's a bug for the server to keep starting when you receive the error. But I couldn't reproduce the broken classpath entry which led to it.

> h3. What
> If you get a ""The specified JRE installation does not exist" error, JBoss Tools puts the entry in the Servers section as "Starting...", which is inaccurate.
