you are using the right JDK.

The engine works on Fedora, RHEL, Ubuntu Gentoo  and should work on any
other Linux based operating system (Java is platform agnostic).

There should not be any local issues, let's try to figure out what the
issues are.

The errors are probably not related to eclipse because you have
compilation errors from the command line as well.

I would start by compiling the engine and api with no tests and no UI:

Run from the command line -

1. $ovirt_engine_home> mvn clean
2. $ovirt_engine_home> mvn install -DskipTests

What is the result of the above two?
