No LoginModules configured for NOTES - eclipse-rcp

Question

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm trying to configure a development environment for Notes 10 using Eclipse 4.6.2 (32bit on Windows 10). The plugin I'm working with works in Notes 9 compiled with Eclipse 3, and continues to work as compiled in Notes 10, but I wish to make some changes.
I've used the instructions from Mikkel Heisterberg's site and modified the VM Argument variables :
install_id = 1564665877146
rcp.home = c:\notes\framework
rcp.base_version = 10.0.0.20181128-1343
The problem is when I try and launch the plugin, the notes UI window opens with the message No LoginModules configured for NOTES, and the stack trace below in Eclipse. I've tried completely reinstalling the notes/designer installation on my machine along with eclipse. I've also tried repeating the process on a system having only the notes client, but always to the same effect. I'm guessing there is something wrong with my process, so the question is, what do I need to do to successfully get Eclipse to launch notes so I can test & debug my plugin.
Any assistance is appreciated.

I just ran into this same error when using Eclipse to launch Notes 11.0. I believe it was an issue with the requires plugin dependencies. This is what I did to fix it:
upgraded to Notes 12.0
reloaded the JRE files (Prefs => Java => Installed JREs)
reloaded the plugins (Prefs => Plug-in Dev => Target Platform)
updated my VM argument variables as per the new values in \Notes\framework\rcp\rcplauncher.properties
install_id=1629781684647
rcp.base_version=10.0.0.20210507-1607
rcp.home=C:\Progra~2\IBM\Notes\framework
Reselect all run config plugins (edit Run Configuration => Plug-ins tab => Select All). I had previously set this as a subset to avoid duplicates/conflicts.
I hope this helps the next person!
