Sergio,

I seem to recall there being comments about bugs in the Sun 1.6 JVM.
Maybe you could try updating it to the last available one...

If you had previously tried those other versions, and then tried unpacking
eclipse-jee-ganymede, did you clean out or delete the directory first, or
did you install on top of an existing Eclipse? Installing on top of
existing files won't always work well.

Have you tried starting with eclipse-SDK-3.4-win32 and then upgrading using
Help -> Software Updates? You should be able to add the packages you need
that way, rather than by reinstalling. If you add a feature at a time, that
might also provide some hints about what feature it is that is causing the
failure.

I had the same problem with a Ganymede release (the modeling release
with the latest JDK - _07) and managed to overcome it by clearing the
contents of the eclipse.ini file (further investigation showed that it
was actually the -framework line and below that were causing this for
some reason). Now I'm encountering random OutOfMemory errors but that is
another story...

Cheers,
Dimitrios

No, its not another story; it is most likely directly related. If you
remove everything after the -framework line, you've removed the args to
the JVM that tell it how much heap space to allocate. The default JVM
heap sizes are probably not enough to run Eclipse successfully, so you
need those settings.
You may have also removed the -vm param and its value, which would be
telling Eclipse specifically which JVM to run on. This is also a
mistake, as you never know what the system JVM is, especially since some
software is known to change it without your knowledge.

There was a thread last week about a JVM bug that led to hard crashes
like this. Can you try Java 5 or an earlier version of Java 6?

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your reply. My 3.3 installation (to which I've eventually
reverted) seems to be doing fine with all JVMs I've had so far (Java 5
or 6) but 3.4 has failed both with 1.6.0_04 and 1.6.0_07 (latest). I
find it hard to attribute this to a de-facto incompatibility between
those two versions of JVM and 3.4 as in this case I suspect that the
newsgroups would have been flooded with questions/complaints shortly
after the release of Ganymede.

Re the thread you mentioned, I'm always using winrar for unzipping so
this shouldn't be the source of my problem.

In any case, if there are known incompatibilities between particular
versions of Eclipse and JVMs wouldn't it be a good idea to have a wiki
page where this is reported?

Cheers,
Dimitrios

You can open the file under eclipse folder: eclipse.ini
and change the -Xmx512m to -Xmx256m
meybe this way can resolve your problem.
