Did you look at the contents of the log file? Can you show us its contents?

Given the number of recent threads about it, there's a good chance you have Java 9, and no release so far works with Java 9 (which is about two weeks old) out of the box. Check https://wiki.eclipse.org/Configure_Eclipse_for_Java_9#Configure_Eclipse_to_run_on_Java_9_VM for instruction on how to fix that. Oxygen.1a will be the first one to properly support Java 9 on release.
