But i can\'t launch eclipse becau

Answer 1

I had the same problem as of "ExiRe" and tried modifying the eclipse.ini, but to no avail. Then by following the eclipse logs I found it's trying to use the default java exes in System32. I deleted the three Java files from System32 folder, specified the -vm args in eclipse.ini and started Eclipse again.

eclipse started fine on the 32 bit combi(both java and eclipse 32 bit versions) but not on the 64 bit combi.

So far I'm using 32 bit combi. If anyone could figure out how to get it work on 64 bit combi please respond.
