After i upgraded Java on my Windows 10, eclipse will not start. It gives an error upon launch.

Error Message

There are multiple ways to resolve this; it depends upon the root cause and many solutions are discussed in other threads. Here's what i did to solve it in my machine.

My "Path" variable (System Environment Variables) had two paths as below.

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_31\bin

Moving the JDK path above the Oracle Java Path solved the issue for me. The order in which they appear has to be changed as below.

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_31\bin
C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath

  • If you want to provide an answer to something you must still ask a question and then write an answer. But this question is asked several times a week and has many existing answers. – greg-449 Feb 16 '16 at 10:05
  • Yea, i can't answer that question since i don't have minimum points. None of the answers in that thread helped me; had to find the solution that worked for me which is explained above and I assume there are others for whom this only work. Just a thought. – harikuz Feb 17 '16 at 09:08
  • Yes, but if you create a new Question the text should just be a question. You should then create an Answer containing the answer. Putting the answer in the question body is against the rules. – greg-449 Feb 17 '16 at 10:30
