I am trying to run Indigo in Mac OS X Lion and I have Java installed and I have re-edited the eclipse.ini file as recommended I am still getting the following errors. See attached file.

Anyone have any ideas?

hey, just to help bump this issue, I have the exact same problem - though my thread was moved to the Equinox forum by a moderator, you can check and see I posted the exact same error log (although I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard)
do you also get an error log before that one that's over 1MB large? This happens no matter which version I try to install and run

Yep I sure do but resolved that one by editing the .ini file.

i tried editing the .ini file (amongst many other things) but still would get the 1MB log file - what did you change your .ini to?
(of course this still doesn't clear up that same 12KB log file Confused )

Can one of you please enter a bug about this at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs and provide as much detail as possible,
then post the bug number back here. You'll want to select RT > Equinox
as the product/component for the bug report.

Hi

It seems not to be a systematic problem on OS X Lion, because here
everything works as expected. I can just tell you what I did:
- upgrade Snow Leopard > Lion
- open a console, run java --> the automatic Java installer kicks in
- download and install the JDK from the apple developer page:
javadeveloper_for_mac_os_x_10.7__11a511.dmg
- run Eclipse (already present from pre-Lion times) --> worked

Even a newly installed plain vanilla Eclipse SDK (eclipse-SDK-3.7-
macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz) without any alterations to any file works.
I am not sure whether that matters, but I always prefer using 'tar
-xzf' instead of the gui unarchiver.

HTH

@Eric Rizzo
I created a bug report as you suggested, # 353166
and as I see on the Equinox forums under the thread I started, it seems more people have this same issue.

@Michael Pellaton
You're saying just upgrade to Mac OSX 10.7? Are you sure that's the only fix?
I have this issue and I'm running 10.6.3

Perhaps that may work, but I don't wish (at the moment at least) to pay for an entire new OS just for one issue, if that issue can be still be solved.

Well, I was thinking you were on 10.7 because your initial post says "I
am trying to run Indigo in Mac OS X Lion" and Lion is 10.7.

actually my first post in this thread I said:
"... my thread was moved to the Equinox forum by a moderator, you can check and see I posted the exact same error log (although I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard)"

the issue is of course that both I and this thread starter have the same problem, despite running different, yet up to date, versions of Mac OSX
