Server App Engine Standard at localhost failed to start

From eclipse, I created a Google App Engine Standard project and tried to Run it on local App Engine. It is not starting and throwing the below errors -

java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap.putVal(ConcurrentHashMap.java:1011)

Also note that I haven't made any changes to the project. It's the default that gets created.

This looks to be a JDK12 issue - it seems JDK12 is restricting the system properties exposed to programs, I've run into a similar issue with the OS version before.

I've reported it to Google, you can star it so they feel the weight of the matter: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/140787205

This is likely an issue with your jdk version. What does javac -version report back? I run into the same stack trace with version 12. Switching to 1.8 works.

On MacOS, this answer helps: How to set or change the default Java (JDK) version on OS X?

Other platforms should have similar ways to switch versions.
