Hello Easan: Ok, I think the problem is a small one. Eclipse can't find you JAVA installation, so we have to tell it where it is.
Open the Eclipse folder, you should see a file named *eclipse.ini*, right click on it and open it. It will contain several lines, something like this: -startup > plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20080819.jar > --launcher.library > plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.0.101.R34x_v20080731 > -showsplash > org.eclipse.platform > --launcher.XXMaxPermSize > 256m > -vmargs > -Xms40m > -Xmx256m > Add the following two lines at the bottom (just go to the bottom and type it in) -vm *c:/jre/bin/javaw.exe* Make sure the second line is the directory where you installed Java on your computer, it could be something like C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\bin\javaw.exe. Save the file and close it. Eclipse should run! Cheers, On Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 7:24 AM, Easan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > i get the error when attempting to open the eclipse application.
