I am relatively new to Linux and very new to Eclipse. I have downloaded
3.0.2 and installed it in my home directory (/home/cknell/eclipse). This
is the message I get when I try to start the program by double-clicking
the eclipse file from the file manager:
JVM terminated. Exit code=1
/usr/bin/java
-cp /home/cknell/eclipse/startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
-os linux
-ws gtk
-arch x86
-showsplash /home/cknell/eclipse/eclipse -showsplash 600
-exitdata /home/cknell/eclipse/eclipse -exitdata 158012
-vm /usr/bin/java
-vmargs
-cp /home/cknell/eclipse/startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
When I try to run eclipse from the command line I get this message:
[cknell@sesame eclipse]$ eclipse
libgcj-java-placeholder.sh
This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java
master link required by jpackage.org conventions. libgcj's
rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools are now slave symlinks to these
masters, and are managed by the alternatives(8) system.
This change was necessary because the rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools
installed by previous versions of libgcj conflicted with symlinks
installed by jpackage.org JVM packages.
This script was designed to be overridden by the supported RHEL3 JRE
packages, java-1.4.2-bea and java-1.4.2-ibm. It is installed as an
alternative symlink as /usr/bin/java. It will override a third-party
(non-RHEL3) JRE's java command if the JRE's bin directory is listed
after /usr/bin in PATH. In that case, it is recommended that the
third-party JRE's bin directory be listed first in PATH instead.
gij: unrecognized option -- `-cp'
Try `gij --help' for more information.
The second message looks like it has enough information to solve the
problem, but I don't have enough experience to make a useful
interpretation. Can anyone tell me how to solve this? Thanks.
Here are the environment variables that I think are relevant (of course
there may be others, but I'm new to this):
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02
CLASSPATH=.:/home/cknell/eclipse/startup.jar
PATH=/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:
/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02/bin:
/home/cknell/apache-ant-1.6.2/bin:/home/cknell/fop-0.20.5:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin:/home/cknell/bin:/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_02/ bin:
/home/cknell/apache-ant-1.6.2/bin:/home/cknell/fop-0.20.5:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin:/home/cknell/eclipse

I tried a slightly different approach to Googling for an answer to this
problem and found the expalanation of the above message that I needed at
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/history/298885
I changed the path so as to put $JAVA_HOME at the beginning (i.e.,
PATH=$JAVA_HOME:$PATH ... as opposed to the original
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME ...
After making this change I can start Eclipse from the shell, but I still
can't start it by clicking on the icon I have placed in the panel at the
bottom of the screen.
Does anyone have an idea of how to make that work?
Thanks.
