eclim installation

[xigamy]

I am absolutely new to eclim. I like the idea of having eclipse
features in vim, especially the code completion. However, i
encountered problems with starting eclim. I followed all installation
instructions. Thats executing the exe for windows.
My environment is: Java 6 Update 10, Eclipse 3.4.1 and Vim 7.2
When i execute eclim.bat in the eclipse plugins directory, i get this
message:
D:\program_files\eclipse_3.4.1\plugins\org.eclim_1.4.3\bin>eclim
connect: No error
And when i execute :PingEclim in Vim i get this message:
unable to connect to eclimd - connect: no error
What is wrong, or what can i do to find out more about this problem?
In the log directory i can only find a .keep file but no logs.

You first need to start eclimd (note the 'd', vs just 'eclim'):

D:\program_files\eclipse_3.4.1\plugins\org.eclim_1.4.3\bin> eclimd.bat

Unfortunately, I don't know what causes this. Occasionally eclipse
just doesn't recognize the new application that eclim registers. My
only advice is to try installing eclim again, perhaps on a fresh
eclipse install if your existing install refuses to acknowledge the
eclim app.

Did that solve your issue?
If not, you could try a newer Eclipse Version.
Everything works fine for me with:
Eclipse SDK
Version: 3.4.1
Build id: M20080911-1700
