I try to run eclipse, but I can not. The software creates an error in the root\workspace\.metadata\.log folder. But I did not understand anything. Here is the log file:

Log File

Also, I did not find a file named ".snap" at the address given. I deleted the workspace folder. I even deleted the software and installed it again. But none of them worked.

  • The problem is Eclipse Oxygen.1 (4.7.1) with Java 9. I recommend using [Oxygen.1a (4.7.1a)](http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/eclipse-packages/). Alternatively, edit `eclipse.ini` as follow: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46370112/6505250 – howlger Nov 29 '17 at 13:47

In the workspace folder there is a folder with the name ".metadata". and in this folder there is a file with the name ".log".

So the actual path will be:

"/root/workspace/.metadata/.log"

In Linux you might need to use ls -la to see the folder ".metadata" and the file ".log".

Check also the file eclipse.ini in the root folder of the Eclipse installation. In this file you could specify the -vm parameter and point it to the JVM dll or "so" files directly.

For example: 

-vm
D:\talend\jre1.8.0_91\bin\server\jvm.dll

  • Thank. I am still not allowed to give a positive vote.sorry – ali karjoo Nov 29 '17 at 13:46
  • Regarding the eclipse.ini file: depends. See first, if you can find the "*.log*" file somewhere in the Eclipse folder. Try some recursive search for the "*.log*" file, like e.g. in Linux `find . -print | grep .log`. If Eclipse cannot find then the Java for some reason you can use the -vm parameter as described above. – gil.fernandes Nov 29 '17 at 13:50
  • Sorry, I do not know much English. I found the .log file, but I did not understand anything. Can you simply explain what to do? – ali karjoo Nov 29 '17 at 14:13

  • Do you see any errors in the .log file? Something saying "error" or "exception"? – gil.fernandes Nov 29 '17 at 14:25
