I know this is 6 months later but I am having exactly the same problem (only with 2024.q2.8 not u92), can you list the exact steps to resolve this?

U92 was not yet ready for Java 17.

Can't create liferay module project in Eclipse (2023-12 (4.30.0))

2025-02-04T16:08:02Z

Hi, I'm currently using liferay dxp 7.4.13-u92 for my project. My current issue is that I'm unable to create a liferay module project in eclipse.

This is the exception stack trace:
