Strange behaviour after Startup [message #1714556]

Hi,

i got a strange behaviour of Eclipse Mars and also Mars.1, if i start eclipse it firstly
showed only a black rectangle before the splash screen appears and after that it stucks
either on "Remote System Explorer Operation" or on "Initialize Error Reporting System: controller".
Even the Preference Screen won't work as expected. You can choose a section but it wont displayed on the right. See Screenshots

I tried several things to fix this issue:
- Started Eclipse with different command line options like -clean -debug -consoleLog ...
- Cleared the .metadata from Workspace
- Cleared all java depended configuration files
- Tried different Java Versions
- Reinstalled from tarball
- Reinstalled from Eclipse Installer
- Reinstalled complete system (my last option after some weeks... cause i didnt know further Sad

but didnt help either)

But all of the above things didnt work, except of reinstalling than it runs on first start like a charm but on second run it hangs again.

Some information about my current running environment:
Java Version
openjdk version "1.8.0_65"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.65-b01, mixed mode)

System
Linux Arch
Kernel 4.2.5-1-ARCH

I use eclipse for several years now without mangling with such a problem like this and i really don't know how to fix it Sad

I hope anyone could help me out with this strange problem.

Michael

Hey Michael! Good morning sir,

I have same issue here... But in my case, some times the IDE behaves rightly (1 each 4 or 5 attempt). Curiously I am using Linux Arch too...
You still have the problem or could solve it? Tnx a lot!

Same deal with other Eclipse flavor: Java EE Mars see attached screenshot

Java 7 doesn't make difference.

Eclipse.ini is as follows:

-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.100.v20150511-1540.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.300.v20150602-1417
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7
-XX:MaxPermSize=3g
-Xms7g
-Xmx7g

Hi,

i could only resolve the problem by changing the distribution from Arch Linux to Ubuntu where it works like a charm, but i want Arch Linux and got the same issue after complete reinstall Arch.
Anyone got solved this issue by now?

I had several issues with Eclipse that disappeared with "export
SWT_GTK3=0" (I start eclipse from a bash script)
