Eclipse - Failed to create the java virtual machine

Question

I\'m having issue with running my Eclipse with the following config:

eclipse.ini

-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
--         


        

Answer 1

I have added below line and its working fine.

-vm C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_16/bin/javax.exe

-Xmx512m

-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6

Answer 2

Just add your JDK path in windows environment variable. This solves in my case

Answer 3

I had the same problem, I've fixed it very simple by updating my JDK version. If you don't have JDK installed or not updated, please Go here and install/update it. Mostly your problem will be fixed.

Answer 4

Change the below parameter in the eclipse.ini (which is in the same directory as eclipse.exe) to match one of your current Java version. Note that I also changed the maximum memory allowed for the eclipse process (which is run in a JVM). If you having multiple Java versions installed this can be happen. The below trick word for me.

-Xmx512m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6

I changed this to,

-Xmx1024m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7

Then It worked.

Answer 5

It works for me after removing -XX:+UseParallelOldGC option from file.

Answer 6

--launcher.XXMaxPermSize MaxPermSize=256m -Xms512m -Xmx1024m

 replace with below one

--launcher.XXMaxPermSize MaxPermSize=128m -Xms256m -Xmx512 m
