I've searched for a solution to this problem all over stackoverflow and other sites, but I couldn't find a solution that addresses this particular error. Eclipse fails to launch, with an error in the log file which is like that :

"An erroe has occurred. See the log file C:\Users\dell\Desktop\Apps\adt bundle\adt-bundle-windows64bit\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140702\eclipse\configuration\1507118079036.log."

So please, can you help me to solve this problem? ( as I am totally new to Eclipse and Java )

Try this: Delete the .snap file

   YOUR_WORKSPACE/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.snap

For example:

    E:\Sankalp Gupta\JAVA\JavaPractice\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\70.snap

    **Don't do this** if you don't want to lose data! – howlger Oct 04 '17 at 13:11
  • @howlger, Which kind of data you taking about, can you elaborate a little. –  Oct 04 '17 at 13:14
  • The `.metadata` folder contains all workspace-specific preferences (most of _Windows > Preferences_), important meta information about projects, local history, etc. It also contains temp/cached files which are not important (use `-clean` to ignore them). Any plug-in can store data in the `.metadata` folder. Therefore it depends on the plug-ins used what is stored in the the `.metadata` folder. – howlger Oct 04 '17 at 13:24
  • @howlger,I agree with you but Here according to this stackoverflow question by user, he/she totally new to Eclipse and Java and Eclipse fails to launch. –  Oct 04 '17 at 13:32
  • If Eclipse logs an error in the configuration area (`...\configuration\{time-stamp}.log`), it fails **before the workspace** is opened (otherwise `...\{workspace}\.metadata\.log` will be used). Here, the error would also occur with a new workspace (`-data ...`). See question: _"Eclipse fails to launch"_. – howlger Oct 04 '17 at 14:33

I had the same issue but I tried the following and it resolved the issue:

  1. Go to the eclipse directory.
  2. Open the command prompt.
  3. Run the eclipse -clean command.

Eclipse should work fine now.
