You're attempting to run a 64-bit Eclipse on a 32-bit JDK?

The fact that his eclipse is in his 32x Program Files it Suggests Differently ^.^

But I have a Similar Problem:
index.php/fa/6663/0/

LogFile Reads:

Yes, you do have to specify the path to the JRE in eclipse.ini. The path
you have there doesn't look very likely.

That is just the location of my Eclipse?

So, that was to obfuscate your filesystem details from the rest of us?

Or are you actually using pound signs in subdirectory names?

If the latter, and as you have no idea what tools underneath you expect,
you are tempting fate any time you use other than
[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*. I don't advise spaces even though they're
probably safe (however ugly on Linux). I can't say precisely that #
won't work in Eclipse on Windows, but Toshihiro's post brings up a very
good point.

I would suggest setting up Eclipse using boring, canonical assumptions
first, get it running, then go back and try it again using you favorite,
special characters. Simple renaming might also achieve your cosmetic
effect, but be careful as renaming might be too shallow an operation
that leaves you disconnected from deeper configuration you can only
change through actual set-up.

Then you either didn't define the location correctly, or there isn't a jdk/jre at either of those locations because the screen shot shows that the Eclipse launcher found a VM in the D/Windows/System32 directory.

You need two lines in the eclipse.ini file
-vm
location of javaw.exe

These have to be included before the -vmargs line. If you include them after -vmargs, they will be added to the vm launch command instead of being used to locate the vm.

I did modify the .ini Correctly ^.^

But it does seem the problem was the '#' signs because I extracted Eclipse Directly onto my B Drive and it Worked Smile

Thanks for the help

Very Happy
