I opened eclipse, did: help/check for updates,
oomph update, go ahead.

Now it won't re/start;

Java was started but returned exit code=13

And about 30 lines of other info - not clear what the error was, or how to recover.

Eclipse Mars-64.

"Check for updates" does not use Oomph. You'd use "Help -> Perform
Setup Tasks..." to update using Oomph.

Does the JVM references by the -vm argument in our screen capture (and
as it appears in your eclipse.ini next to the eclipse.exe) exist on your
file system?

"Check for Updates" showed "Available Updates" of "Oomph setup", (1.3.0.v20151114-0843).

Installing that is what failed.

Yes, the -vm argument path and file exist.

One odd (maybe) thing is I had a 64 bit eclipse, and have 64-bit windows, but the error shows (-os win32, -ws win32), -arch x86_64). The "32"s surprise me.

I had to keep working, so did a e=install (although I kept the broken version also).

The error code suggests it's a failure to start the VM at all and that's
generally an issue with a lack of a -vm option (and the system default
being wrong), or the -vm option specifies something wrong. In your new
install (which installs the latest Oomph which suggest there is no
problem with the latest Oomph), is there a -vm option? Is it different
from this old one?

In eclipse.ini for the new (good) install, there is no -vm option.

Gregory,

Does removing the -vm option from the non-functional installation make
it work? (You're sure that VM exists?) Have you installed or updated
VMs recently, i.e., since you created the installation that's no longer
functional?
