Answer 1

Found a work around for this. Uninstalled all svn plugins from Eclipse and restarted it. Installed Subclipse svn plugin from http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.10.x

Answer 2

I had the same problem in Luna on Win 7 64 bit with the 2.0.3 subversive team provider and the Polarion SVNKit 1.8.7 version 4.1.2. Clearly somewhere in these java 7 is needed. Servaq's suggestion improved things for me but didn't quite fix everything. But a similar change to eclipse.ini did the trick for me: I added

-vm  
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\server\jvm.dll

right before the -vmargs. Obviously, the path to server\jvm.dll is installation-dependent.

Just in case it's helpful to Chandika ("I wants to use java 1.6"), I'm still using java 6 as the compiler/runtime for the code I'm developing within this eclipse. I'm just using java 7 to start eclipse.

Answer 3

I had the same error when I opened Eclipse. Checking the file: workspase-path/.metadata/.log I found the following exception:

!MESSAGE SVN: 'SVN Decorator' operation finished with error: java/nio/file/Paths
!STACK 0
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/nio/file/Paths
    at org.eclipse.team.svn.core.utility.SVNUtility.getNodeKind(SVNUtility.java:1145)
...

To solve the problem I installed JRE 1.7, then I changed eclipse.ini to force Eclipse to use it, adding the next at the beginning:

-jv
"path-to-jre7/bin/javaw.exe"
