Eclipse not opening after JDK installation - Win 7 Machine 64 bit

Eclpse IDE is not opening after JDK installation. After reading through couple of related posts. I added for path in environment variables below text

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin\javac;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin\javaw.exe

When I type path in c开发者_JAVA百科md file this values get reflected.

Now I'm bit worried if I have to uninstall and check. Any help is appreciated.

Rather than fiddling with the $PATH, I would first set explicitly the jdk to use when launching eclipse, by editing eclipse.ini and adding those lines:

-vm
C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_25/jre/bin/server/jvm.dll

See this eclipse.ini as an example.

See also "Eclipse crashes on start-up. Wrong eclipse.ini?" for more.

You may also try by removing these two lines.

Edit the eclipse.ini file and remove these two lines: -startup plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.100.v20080509-1800.jar

Siva,

For your eclipse to recognize your virtual machine you basically have 3 alternatives:

Method 1

Control Panel > Java > Java tab > click the View button.

Find your JVM installation and inside Runtime Parameters, put:

• -Djava.home=YOUR_JVM_PATH_HERE

• In your case: -Djava.home=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\

Method 2

You can set your JAVA_HOME https://stackoverflow.com/a/6521412/5626568

Method 3

How to specify your JVM direct inside config file: Eclipse workspace crashes on startup

Important to remember:

• For the 32-bit Eclipse executable (eclipse.exe on Windows) a 32-bit JVM must be used
• For the 64-bit Eclipse executable a 64-bit JVM must be used
• 32-bit Eclipse will not work with a 64-bit JVM

I hope this helps...

Good Luck!

Solution:

step 1 :Go to C:\Users"username"\eclipse"jdk version"\eclipse\eclipse.ini

step 3: save and close the ini file , open your eclipse ... and you are ready to rock and roll again.
