Eclipse error: 'Failed to create the Java Virtual Machine'
I am getting this error message when I start Eclipse Helios on Windows 7:
Failed to create the Java Virtual Machine
My eclipse.ini looks as follows:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.0.v20100507.jar
-vm
P:Programsjdk1.6bin
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.0.v20100503
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
512m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms120m
-Xmn100m
-Xmx1024m
My JAVA_HOME is correctly set as far as I can tell. How can I fix this?
Things I have tried so far:
-vm P:Programsjdk1.6binbinjavaw.exe
-vm
option altogether --launcher.XXMaxPermSize
fixes the issue, but it causes permgen errors 512
of --launcher.XXMaxPermSize
fixes the issue, but it causes permgen errors -Xmx
to 512m
also fixes the issue. Why can I not use '1024m' for '-Xmx' and '--launcher.XXMaxPermSize'?
Try removing the -vm P:Programsjdk1.6bin
lines.
Also, a general recommendation: set -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
, not 1.5
.
1. Open the eclipse.ini
file from your eclipse folder,see the picture below.
2. Open eclipse.ini
in Notepad
or any other text-editor
application, Find the line -Xmx256m
(or -Xmx1024m
). Now change the default value 256m
(or 1024m
) to 512m
. You also need to give the exact java installed version (1.6 or 1.7 or other).
Like This:
-Xmx512m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
OR
-Xmx512m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7
OR
-Xmx512m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
Then it works well for me.
Try to add
-vm
D:Javajdk1.6.0_29binjavaw.exe
FYI: Refer sunblog
For others who might have problems with Java 7, as per Eclipse Wiki - eclipse.ini vm_value (windows example)
This might not work on all systems. If you encounter "Java was started but returned exit code=1" error while starting the eclipse, modify the -vm argument to point to jvm.dll
eg
-vm
C:Program FilesJavajre7binclientjvm.dll
Also note that
The -vm option must occur before the -vmargs option, since everything after -vmargs is passed directly to the JVM
