Hello, I am a German student and i have the following problem.
I get following error mesasge when i click at eclipse.exe:

A JRE or JDK must be available to run eclipse. No javavisrtual machine was
found after searching the following locations
C:>Eclipse\eclipse\jre\bin\javaw.exe

i dont really understand why, because first i have JRE and JDK installed
and second i dont have them in the same folder as eclipse. i read that i
could call eclipse form the dosbox but i didnt really understandt how.
can someone tell me how do i make run eclipse normally. Thanks

Rodo,

Eclipse will look for it in a few places and that's the last place it
will look failing the other tries. Most often it would find it on your
path. If you run java.exe, I'll be that's not found either because it's
not on your path. You can also use a -vm argument to tell it where to
look.
