After first trying to start Eclipse without any parameters to specify the Java VM, I got an error message saying it couldn't find a Java VM called javaw.exe inside the Eclipse folder, so I found where Java was installed and specified that location as the parameter in the shortcut's target. Now I get a different error, Java was started but returned exit code=13.

This can happen when a system has more than one JVM installed, as is often the case on Windows 64-bit (for example, the JRE download page uses the bit-ness of the browser to determine what bit-ness download to offer you, and many people use(d) 32-bit browsers even though they run 64-bit Windows).

The best way to fix this, assuming you do in fact have 64-bit JRE or JDK on your system, is to specify in eclipse.ini exactly which JVM you want it to use. The instructions are detailed in the Eclipse wiki page, but basically you have to specify the -vm option in the ini file - make sure to read the wiki page carefully as the format is very specific.

Specifying the JVM path in eclipse.ini is strongly recommended because doing so isolates Eclipse from any potential changes to your system PATH that some program installers might make (I'm talking to you, Oracle!).

If you are on a 64-bit machine, then you can install the 64-bit JDK and uninstall the 32-bit one. For instance on Windows 10, just go to Settings and under Apps, you will find Java. Click on it and you will find all the different versions. Now you can select which one to uninstall.

So the solution is quite straightforward: You need to synchronise them by updating either one. This shall happen when downloading Oracle Fusion middleware and Eclipse expects a 32-bit environment while your JRE is 64-bit and your JAVA home is pointing to a 64-bit JDK.

Changing environment variables, etc. did not help. So I tried to remove the Java Update 8, but that too did not help. Downloading and installing the 64-bit version of Java 8 SDK fixed my problem. I hope this helps.

Please check whether you have set two JAVA paths in the Environment Variable section. If you already installed two versions of the JDK, it might be, then double check you have put PATH for Java like below.

I have not changed anyhing Eclipse/Java related on my machine but a Windows update was applied to my machine yesterday, so maybe that has something to do with it (but I don't see anything that would affect Java). I've looked at all the other posts about adding something to your PATH or adding the -vm option to the Eclipse ini (couldn't get this to work) or copying the jre folder to eclipse\jre (this worked but doesn't seem like a good long term solution). So I'm really trying to figure out how to get things back to the "default" setup without messing stuff up.

now try to open this location, in case you are not able to open, that means there is some problem. In my case the version installed was jre1.8.0_60 . So there was a small difference which may not noticeable(66 instead of 60). Update it you will be able to open.

as of today, 6/1/12, the Java Devloper Package for OSX 10.7, no longer come with src.jar under Home directory. Some google results pointing to Apple's decision in 2010 to deprecate Java support in OSX (the ported one by Apple). And Oracle start providing Mac OS X JDK since this April. So going forward, install JDK from Oracle.

As of the release of Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3, the Java runtime ported by Apple and that ships with Mac OS X is deprecated. Developers should not rely on the Apple-supplied Java runtime being present in future versions of Mac OS X Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3 and 10.5 Update 8 Release Notes

As a newb to Mac (10.6.6), here's what I did for MyEclipse, which should also work for Eclipse; I've not tested this in a disconnected mode. When trying to add another JRE for MyEclipse 8.5, it required a "MacOS X VM", and would not support a "Standard VM". I tried modifying both the eclipse.ini and myeclipse.ini files, and also tried starting MyEclipse from the command line with a specific JAVA_HOME set with no avail.

1) download and install the correct Java Developer Package. Go to System Preferences -> Software Update -> Installed Software. You may have multiple versions of a given installation, in my case, I had both "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2" and "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3" - so be sure to sort by name, or verify some other way. As of today, the downloaded file name was javadeveloper_10.6_10m3261.dmg.

2) In a terminal window, I added some symlinks from the OS VM that point to jars in the Standard VM. I have slightly modified security permissions, so you may or may not need to use sudo to create the symlinks.

It seems like this should be a simple task, with the options in the Preferences menu for different JREs and the ability to set different compiler and build paths per project. However, it also seems to simply not work.

For example, I have my JAVA_HOME set to a jre for Java 1.6. It's still not clear to me how Eclipse uses this, but it appears to be defaulting to this and not taking the project overrides. I have also installed Java 1.5, and added a JRE for this in eclipse in the Java->Installed JREs section.

In my project, I've set the compiler compliance level to 1.5. In the build path for the project, I've added the System Library for the Java 1.5 JRE. However, I'm getting compile errors for a class that implements PreparedStatement for not implementing abstract methods that only exist in Java 1.6 PreparedStatement. Specifically, the methods

Strangely enough, it worked when we were compiling it against Java 1.4, which it was originally written for. We added the JREs for Java 1.4 and referenced that system library in the project, and set the project's compiler level to 1.4, and it works fine. But when I do the same changes to try to point to Java 1.5, it instead uses 1.6.

Even if your Eclipse is set up properly, there might be a wacky project-specific setting somewhere. You can open up a context menu on a given Java project in the Project Explorer and select Properties > Java Compiler to check on that.

Just to clarify, do you have JAVA_HOME set as a system variable or set in Eclipse classpath variables? I'm pretty sure (but not totally sure!) that the system variable is used by the command line compiler (and Ant), but that Eclipse modifies this accroding to the JDK used

The option to specify a JDK location in the advanced options was only available in Buildship 1.x. It was removed in Buildship 2.x with the expectation that you will use the standard org.gradle.java.home property to set your JDK/JRE as that will cause both command line and Buildship to function the same. Details of this property are in the User Guide in the Build Environment section.

A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse. No Java virtual machine was found after searching the following locations: C:\eclipse\jre\javaw.exe javaw.exe in your current PATH

Alternatively and if not present, you can also add JAVA_HOME environment variable and make use of it in the PATH. In the same dialogue click New and add JAVA_HOME with the value of c:\path\to\jdk. Then you can add ;%JAVA_HOME%\bin to end of the value of the Path setting.

What I did was to install the both the 32 and 64 bit version of JRE. You can get that from the SUN Oracle site. The JAVA site seems to automatically install the 32 bit version of Java. I guess that's because of the web browser.

I have windows 7 64-bit, and I had this same problem with eclipse. To get it to work, I had to use internet explorer (64-bit version) to download java. This was the only way to get java to install a 64-bit version. When I used firefox to install java, it automatically installed a 32-bit version (so idiotic!). And The Eclipse 64-bit version wouldn't detect the java 32-bit version.

Right-click on My Computer, click properties, then advanced system settings, a System properties window will popup, under advanced tab, choose environment variables, Environment variables window will popup, under the System variables section , look for PATH variable, and edit the value, changing it (the version; jre6,jre7, etc) to whatever jre you're using, e.g for mine: C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin

Do not rely on the windows path variable because it gets changed in nearly every update. E.g. a chrome (32bit on a 64 bit machine) java update replaces the systemwide 64 bit JVM by a 32 bit JVM. Note also that this entry has to be the last one in the eclipse.ini, otherwise it does not work,And - as otherwise stated - the JAVA_HOME variable is NOT evaluated by eclipse.exe.

Don't worry i was also ruined by this error and fatal and when i got it i was so frustrate even i was giving to leave an android programming, but i got it, Simply first of all copy this code and paste in your system variable Under path ...

Now this time when you will start eclipse it will search for javaw.exe, so it will search the path in the eclipse.ini, as it is now in the same folder so, it will start the javaw.exe and it will start working.

if you update your java version with default update in your 64 bit computer (and you have 32 bit browser), java will install 32 bit version. You should find 64 bit java version and install it.

There is an easier way to do that. Just run cmd x64. Type cmd x64 to search bar in start menu ant you will find it :) Or alternatively, you should set path to program files (x86) ... For example C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6

The reason you get this error is because eclipse needs a JRE to launch, which it can't find. The first place it searches is the current directory, then the eclipse.ini file and then finally the system path. So if the it can't find the correct jvm(bit versions are different) through any of these three places, it cribs

those modifications to the environment variables do not result in immediate change. For example, if you start another Command Prompt after making the changes, the environment variables will reflect the previous (not the current) values. The changes do not take effect until you log off and then log back on.
