Cannot run Eclipse; JVM terminated. Exit code=13

Question

I just append -vm C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre6\\bin\\javaw.exe

in ec

Answer 1

After java update, eclipse will not start because default jdk location has changed. Adding the following lines to eclipse.ini file solved my problem immediately:

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\bin\javaw.exe

I added these lines just before vmargs. It looks like as the following :

...
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Dhelp.lucene.tokenizer=standard
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m

In my case, i use 32 bit eclipse and java. If you installed both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of java, be careful to choose the right version. For 64 bit versions, refer to the javaw.exe file under the directory

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_60\bin
