Hi, I just performed an upgrade of Eclipse from eclipse-3.6-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz to eclipse-3.6.1-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz and I got the following error when trying to launch Eclipse:
The Eclipse executable launcher was unable to locate its
companion shared library.
Based on what I read elsewhere here in the forums, I compared /etc/eclipse/eclipse.ini with /etc/eclipse/eclipse.ini.new noted that the only difference between the two appears to be line 4 of each file:
Here's /etc/eclipse/eclipse.ini:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.0.v20100507.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.1.R36x_v20100810
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx384m
...and here's /etc/eclipse/eclipse.ini.new:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.0.v20100507.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.1.R36x_v20100810
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx384m
So I swapped out /opt/eclipse/eclipse.ini for the ecipse.ini.new file and received this new error when I tried to launch it again:
An error has occurred. See the log file
/home/tallship/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.6.1_1473617060/configuration/1297372319445.log
Here is the logfile:
