federal MacOS Catalina: Wont start after upgrade, "An error has occurred." [message #1840734] Thu, 22 April 2021 22:11 Go to next message

I let Eclipse upgrade itself, sigh...

I'm running on a MacBook pro, the latest OS (I assume) that others at NASA use: Catalina 10.15.7, with a version of Java 1.8

In eclipse.ini, I changed 11 to 1.8
And added -vm, and the dir
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_271.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
(I tried with and without an extra /java at the end)

Now, when I start, I get a window: An error has occurred. See the log file...
Attached is a zip with the ini file and the log file...

I guess it starts in 1619143567057.bak_0.log with:
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.eclipse.cft.server.branding.core [96]
Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.wst.server.core

All you did was remove a safeguard. The requirement of Java 11 isn't arbitrary.

I don't have Java 11. NASA only allows Java 1.8.

Never mind- downloading a new plain-java 2021-03 eclipse seems to work,
then in the eclipse.ini
mv eclipse.ini eclipse.ini.orig
sed -e 's/=11$/=1.8/' eclipse.ini.orig > eclipse.ini
echo '-vm' >> eclipse.ini
echo `/usr/libexec/java_home`'/bin' >> eclipse.ini

Note that the package you downloaded contains a JRE so likely it would work without your changes to the *.ini. In fact the changes to the *.ini are probably not effective because you added -vm at the end, after the -vmargs line) and I think that just passes these as arguments to the process you launch rather than using that as the actual vm for actually launching the process. I say this because 2021-03 definitely will not run with Java 8.
