when i was starting eclipse, i first got this error dialog: enter image description here

After this error,i researched and found a solution here.

this solution asked me to give this line in eclipse.ini:

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\javaw.exe

but after adding this, i found another kind of error dialog:

enter image description here

after this error,i researched alot, and found these solutions sol1 ,sol2 after following these, error is not resolved. does anyone know why i am facing this problem.

note: i know this is kind of duplicate question, but all those duplicate question are not resolved yet, so do not mark this as duplicate!

  • considering your reputation, you must have already done it :P, but then again.. did u check your path variable???... have you installed JDK and JRE and set the paths for then?? – TheLostMind Dec 16 '13 at 06:11

    i would rather uninstalling java, removing anything reletaed to java in system variables/paths, then install a new JDK. i would download a new eclipse, besause there is(maybe) corrupted settings in the old allready installed eclipse package – Rami.Q Dec 16 '13 at 06:15
  • @Rami.Q - Ya.. I had to do the same when I had this issue.. – TheLostMind Dec 16 '13 at 06:17
  • What about: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4945178/cannot-run-eclipse-jvm-terminated-exit-code-13 or http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9635506/error-starting-eclipse-in-linux-jvm-terminated-exit-code-13 ? –  Dec 16 '13 at 06:18

    Check your PATH environmental variable and make sure you have an up-to-date JDK. Possibly redownload your JDK. Also make sure your Eclipse and JDK are the same bit version (32 bit and 32 bit or 64 bit and 64 bit). – Michael Yaworski Dec 16 '13 at 06:27
  • i have mentioned research in my question,the problem is i don't want to reinstall – Hamad Dec 16 '13 at 06:27
  • i want to resolve it without unstall and install again,becuase it is not the solution,it is like jugad,and i want the solution! – Hamad Dec 16 '13 at 06:28
  • also i have checked the enviroment variable and all the required stuff – Hamad Dec 16 '13 at 06:29

You're trying to run a 64-bit Eclipse with a 32-bit Java Runtime. They have to match.

  • Amazing! it really solved my problem, and it is common we never try to understand these errors shown in dialogs, and we hit our head with walls and pull our hairs that why this error is coming before reading the error properly :) – Hamad Dec 16 '13 at 08:24
  • @nitind, what do you mean by 64-bit Eclipse? if we want to download Eclipse we have two choices windows 32 and 64, For me i have a windows 64 but i need to run JVM 32-bit because i must install Jboss tools, what should i do ? – Tarik Feb 11 '15 at 23:31
  • The JVM and Eclipse *must* match because the JVM has to load native DLLs for the UI controls, and on Windows you can't mix 32-bit and 64-bit code in the same process. If you require a 32-bit JVM, you must use a 32-bit download of Eclipse. – nitind Feb 12 '15 at 06:41

If you have recently updated your java then please uninstall that update. It worked in my case. Hope it will help.
