Could not find bootstrap code [message #238622]

Hi ALL,

Am running on WinXP and get same error trying to start eclipse from DOS
prompt and explorer.

Am running JRE Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.3.1_11 but I don't think that's
the problem.

Do I need to set the "PATH" or some system environment to the eclipse main
directory or should eclipse automatically find the bootstrap from where it
was started ?

Thanks

Which version of eclipse are you running? For the 3.0 milestone you will
need a 1.4.1 level or higher Java.

Did you read
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=35718
and see whether the issues there apply?
