I install eclipse in a windows xp professional x64 edition pc(I delete the
old folder)
I have java vm installed in "c:\program
files\java\jdk1.6.0_13\jre\bin\javaw.exe"

When I run eclipse, it starts a few second then stops. From Windows Task
Manager, I can see that eclipse and javaw start and go.

What happens? any help?

My CPU is Xeon(R) E5430 @ 2.66GHz, 8G RAM


thanks

What did you use to unzip Eclipse? If you used the Windows built-in unzip
tool, you may have corrupted files. Try using WinZip or something like
that. (This is documented on the download page, somewhere...)

Also, make sure that you are actually using the VM you think you are using.
Sometimes other applications install old out-of-date JVMs on the path. If
you open a command shell and type "java -version", what do you get? (You
can also specify a particular JVM location in your eclipse.ini or on the
Eclipse command line.)

You may find some answers at

Also, make sure if you are using a 64-bit JVM that you have a 64-bit
build of Eclipse. If you have a 32-bit JVM make sure you are using
32-bit Eclipse (the default).

Eclipse 3.1.2 is obsolete and no longer supported. The latest stable
version is 3.4.2. You should download an up-to-date version from
eclipse.org, and make sure that you are using the Sun Java VM, not gcj.

There is a Wiki page on how to get and install Eclipse, at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_Where_do_I_get_and_install_Eclip se%3F . There
is also information linked from the download pages.

Hi everybody,
I have the same problem with Eclipse start up. I have followed the
instruction from wiki.eclipse. My system is VirtualBox (host OS is WinXP)
with centOS 4.6 (linux kernel 2.6), Eclipse 3.1, j2sdk 1.4.2. Here are my
setting:

java path is already point to j2sdk1.4.2
/home/<user_name>/Desktop/j2sdk1.4.2_18
(not to RedHat.gjc) under non-root account (checked with: $ which java)
java -version is 1.4.2
I've modified the eclipse.ini:
-vm
/home/<user_name>/Desktop/j2sdk1.4.2_18

The error ms come when i run eclipse:
JWM terminated. Exit code = 1
/usr/bin/java
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-vm /home/<username>/Desktop/j2sdk1.4.2_18/bin/java
-jar /home/<username>/eclipse/startup.jar
-os linux
-ws gtk
-arch x86
-launcher/home/<username>/eclipse/eclipse
-name Eclipse
-showsplash 600
-exitdata 13000f
-vm /usr/bin/java
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-vm /home/<username>/Desktop/j2sdk1.4.2_18/bin/java
-jar /home/<username>/eclipse/startup.jar

I've noticed that -Xms40m.....-jar /home.... repeat 2 times, it's like
eclipse.ini is concatenated with some other setting and there is -vm point
to the /user/bin/java

Do you have any idea?
Thank you

This is learning to install Eclipse for Windows.
And how could be installed for Fedora Core 6 (Linux)?

thanks

The process is the same. Substitute the directory were you unzip
Eclipse for C:\ in the document.

That needs to point to the Java executable file, not the directory. For
an example, see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini

And what about VM and mozilla browser? Some applet program I can see on
Mozilla firefox 1.5, but in Mozilla firefox 2.0 I can't?
What is the problem?
Help me with it. On monday morninng we will install on my job ever and
ever, i.e., the latest version Fedora Core 9 or 10 + Java JDK 1.6 +
Eclipse( I suppose 3.4.2) + Browser for to them...

thanks
