Been using Eclipse for a long time as a java developer.
My PC was upgraded to windows 7. To be more precise my main drive was completely wipe out with a new image.
Started re-installing stuff.
Dowloaded lastest eclipse IDE for JAVA EE Developers eclipse-jee-indigo-SR2-win32-x86_64.zip (v. 3.7.2, build)
Unzipped in C:\Program Files\Eclipse3-7-2-64
Installed 64 bits jdk in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_31
java -version
java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.6-b01, mixed mode)
Made sure the vm is specified in eclipse.ini
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.100.v20110502
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256M
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_31\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
(tried both with "" or without around the path to javaw.exe e.i. "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_31\bin\javaw.exe" does not seem to make any difference)
Anyway as far as I know this is the only java on my machine since I just installed it before eclipse.
No matter what I do, eclipse does not start, I always get....

And there is plenty of stuff in plugins directory like...
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.touchpoint.eclipse_2.1.1.v20110815-1419.jar
Any clue what is going on? (e.g. what am I doing wrong?)

I would recommend moving Eclipse out of Program Files under Windows 7. It may work now, but there may come a time when you run into a permission problem that again prevents things from working. This can happen when you try to update the software or install new software. Program Files is treated as a special location by Windows 7 and the OS places restrictions on what programs can change in this directory.
