Eclipse Crash under AIX 5.1 [message #282780] Sun, 20 March 2005 09:59 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hello,
My company is testing a number of IDE's now, and we heard alot of good
comments about Eclipse. Iam in charge of testing the IDE's, but I cannot
get Eclipse to start.

I downloaded Eclipse 3.0.1 for aix, unzipped it, and tried to run it, but
I keep on getting Signal 4, and the program dies.
I use java 1.4.2 that was released by IBM for that AIX. I also checked the
install notes for AIX, and i do have all the required updates.

I saw that someone else already asked this question before
( http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.platform/msg24 065.html),
but there was no real solution there. Just like him, my splash screen is
also green.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you very much

Shlomi

I cannot see this particular page, but a long shot could be that the JVM
dislikes your X-server configuration. For Sun JVM's - if I recall
correctly - the X-server needed to be 8-bit or 24-bit color depth.
15-16 bit gave strange color problems.

Perhaps it is a similar problem for you.

Hi Shlomi,

The green splash screen is not relevant to your crash (this is fixed in the
3.1 stream), but your error log is. See the two bug reports linked below,
and if neither of these looks like the problem you're having (both of which
were fixed by running the JRE in 32-bit mode) then please log a bug report
with Platform - SWT and include your error log (see your
workspace/.metadata/.log file).

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=46010
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=88077

Thanks,
Grant
