I use Windows 10 and jre1.8.0_51. I don\'t know why when I start Eclipse it always displays an alert message \"An error has occurred. See the log file null.\"

Make sure your eclipse launch folder does not have read only property/attribute
My eclipse resides at below location and If I right click ->properties- checked attributes were read only. I unchecked read only and restarted eclipse. Issue was resolved. C:\Users\Ashish\Downloads\eclipse-jee-mars-2-win32-x86_64 (1)\eclipse
Delete the .metadata folder in eclipse. That should resolve the issue. The .metadata folder is recreated by eclipse once it is able to launch successfully.
Had same issue. To resolve it : Go to Eclipse directory -> Open CMD -> eclipse -clean
worked well.
I found that running Eclipse (STS 3.9) as administrator worked, which is a permissions issue. Giving the required users read/write/execute permissions to the config and workspace folders did the trick (they couldn't write previously).
I had the same problem and deleting the file .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.snap and try it should work
