Hi, I wonder if someone has experienced the following error and have some
pointers on how I might resolve this. My operating system is windows XP.
After installing the latest SDK from Sun(j2sdk-1_4_2_01), eclipse fails to
start. The content of the log file is:
!SESSION
------------------------------------------------------------ ----------
!ENTRY org.eclipse.core.launcher 4 0 Oct 13, 2003 22:23:42.718
!MESSAGE Exception launching the Eclipse Platform:
!STACK
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not find bootstrap code. Check location
of boot plug-in or specify -boot.
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.searchForBoot(Main.java:468)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.getBootPath(Main.java:438)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.basicRun(Main.java:281)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:747)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:583)
Removing the last SDK install, and reinstalling Eclipse does not fix.
Looking at other forum entries for the same error, I now start Eclipse
with explicite locations of -data and -vm
also I have c:\eclipse\startup.jar in the classpath and included the
eclipse\plugin directory in the classpath, but still get the error.
I'm thinking that this is a PATH,CLASSPATH or LIBRARY problem and if it
is, I should be able the sucessfully start Eclipse in a command prompt
window, expicitly stating the resources Eclipse requires to startup, but
all attempts so far have failed. I think I am missing something basic, Can
anyone make a suggestion?
Thank you in advance.
