Can't start 3.3M5 on OSX: requires Java 'A'? [message #197879] Mon, 05 March 2007 19:04 Go to next message

Hello,

I'm fairly new to Macs. I've downloaded and started Eclipse 3.3M5. When
I try to run it on my mac, I get a dialog box that says:

"Could not launch the application because it requires a version of Java
that is not installed."

It further says, "This application requires Java A, but only the
following Java versions are installed: 1.6.0, 1.5.0, 1.4.2, 1.5, 1.4,
1.6. Updating to a newer version of Mac OS X may resolve this."

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Finally I found an answer. You have to edit
eclipse.app/Contents/Info.plist and add
or uncomment a valid jdk home in section

<key>Eclipse</key>
<array>
...
