How are you opening it? Which operating system are you using?

DanixOP•9mo ago

Windows 11 @dan1st | Daniel

dan1st•9mo ago

. also try opening a terminal in the Eclipse installation directory and run eclipsec from that terminal

DanixOP•9mo ago

This thing I am facing

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

I said eclipsec, not eclipse alternatively, you could try eclipse -console Also I didn't say anything about -clean

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

I meant running eclipsec in the terminal here instead of eclipse -clean, run eclipsec

DanixOP•9mo ago

This is what I got

@dan1st | Daniel

dan1st•9mo ago

Can you show the eclipse.ini? (open the file in some text editor)

DanixOP•9mo ago

@dan1st | Daniel

dan1st•9mo ago

just remove that line

DanixOP•9mo ago

Now it says version 1.8.0_202 of the jvm is not suitable for this product. Version 17 or greater is required

dan1st•9mo ago

Do you have Java 17 or later installed on your system? When installing Eclipse, did you specify a Java version in the installer?

DanixOP•9mo ago

The eclipse automatically take java version 21

dan1st•9mo ago

Well in your case it uses Java 8 anyways do you know where Java 21 is installed on your system?

DanixOP•9mo ago

Yehh I checked it

dan1st•9mo ago

what's the output of where java?

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ahh let me check it Environment path

dan1st•9mo ago

just enter where java in cmd it will tell you where it is

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

ok In the eclipse.ini, add the following two lines

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin\java-21\bin\java.exe

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin\java-21\bin\java.exe

(you can later replace java.exe with javaw.exe but for now it would be good to see the console etc) also there may be a better version of that by using the jvm.dll which may be located in some other directory

DanixOP•9mo ago

Should I also add

-v

-v

vm!

dan1st•9mo ago

Note, you should add these at the beginning of that file or at least before -vmargs ? just these two lines

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh Ok I did it

dan1st•9mo ago

Does it work?

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

don't add it at the end add it at the beginning it must be at some point before -vmargs

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh I am getting error

dan1st•9mo ago

what's the error?

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

Did you run it from the terminal with eclipsec?

DanixOP•9mo ago

No Directly from app icon

dan1st•9mo ago

try running it from the terminal using eclipsec and check the output shown in the terminal

DanixOP•9mo ago

Its the same error

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

What's shown in the .log file shown in the error? btw you can just paste stuff into Discord you don't need to take images with your phone it's easier to read that way

DanixOP•9mo ago

It's not but this

dan1st•9mo ago

DanixOP•9mo ago

dan1st•9mo ago

yes and this error gives you the path to some file you can open that file and look what's inside and that file should tell you what's wrong

DanixOP•9mo ago

The file is too long

dan1st•9mo ago

the end is the most important part Also if possible, just paste the text into Discord not images

the error at the end

dan1st•9mo ago

Did you move the eclipse installation after downloading/installing it?

DanixOP•9mo ago

Not today but may be before when I downloaded it

dan1st•9mo ago

you can try adding

-Dosgi.bundles=org.eclipse.equinox.common@2:start,org.eclipse.update.configurator@3:start,org.eclipse.core.runtime@start

-Dosgi.bundles=org.eclipse.equinox.common@2:start,org.eclipse.update.configurator@3:start,org.eclipse.core.runtime@start

to the eclipse.ini that may have caused the problem after installing, you shouldn't move the installation directory

DanixOP•9mo ago

Where to add it

dan1st•9mo ago

at the end

DanixOP•9mo ago

Before exception right ?

dan1st•9mo ago

? in the eclipse.ini not the log file

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh Now I am getting error into another log file

dan1st•9mo ago

then you'd need to check the error

dan1st•9mo ago

Is that the new log file?

DanixOP•9mo ago

yehh

dan1st•9mo ago

This really looks like you moved the Eclipse installation you might want to try installing it again without moving it or you just download the zip file instead of the installer

DanixOP•9mo ago

can u tell me how to do it bcz i have already try alot times i havenot move it today when i download it

dan1st•9mo ago

just try with the zip file instead of installing

DanixOP•9mo ago

So should I have to delete the ecplise from my OS First

dan1st•9mo ago

yeah you can do that In https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2024-03/r/eclipse-ide-java-developers, there's a Windows download link

dan1st•9mo ago

that should download a zip file Extract that zip file where you want and it should come with everything you need

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh

dan1st•9mo ago

and it should even be possible to move it around

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ok Btw how did u know all the things like what the error is and what might the problem was .. Did u learned all those stuffs

dan1st•9mo ago

I use Eclipse and Java for quite some time (and I have done some weird/questionable things that break stuff) so I am experienced with what these things are

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh

dan1st•9mo ago

and for that, I googled it and found https://stackoverflow.com/a/8775340/10871900

"Unable to acquire application service" error while launching Eclipse

When ever I try to launch my eclipse I am getting the following exception an its not coming up. java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to acquire application service. Ensure that the org.eclipse....

DanixOP•9mo ago

Are u a backend developer

dan1st•9mo ago

For that, I knew what the security manager is and that these things are configured in the eclipse.ini yes

DanixOP•9mo ago

Ohh

dan1st•9mo ago

for that, it literally told you what the issue was and I know how to change the JVM

DanixOP•9mo ago

Actually I am also following the path of java backend developer but really confused about the technologies that what should I would have to learn . I know java , spring core , database but don't know what technology I should follow up next. Can u suggest

dan1st•9mo ago

So you already know Java and Spring?

DanixOP•9mo ago

Yehh I know java and spring core

dan1st•9mo ago

Were you using Spring Boot?

DanixOP•9mo ago

I am confused on it like should I have to learn spring MVC before it or not

dan1st•9mo ago

just use Spring Boot and learn Spring MVC using Spring Boot

dan1st•9mo ago

if you want resources: https://spring.academy/ https://spring.io/guides/

Spring Academy - Unlock your full potential with Spring courses fro...

Unlock your full potential with Spring courses from the Spring team.

Guides

Level up your Java code and explore what Spring can do for you.

DanixOP•9mo ago

Like While Learning Spring Boot I should have to learn Spring MVC with it

dan1st•9mo ago

Learning Spring Boot itself isn't that hard like Spring Boot just makes working with Spring easier by automatically configuring stuff for you/making configuration easier

DanixOP•9mo ago

ohh

dan1st•9mo ago

For the first link there, the free courses are probably enough

DanixOP•9mo ago

so i have to learn Spring MVC as Well is that for spring boot

dan1st•9mo ago

I think these are using Spring Boot Spring Boot will probably make this easier :)

DanixOP•9mo ago

I am confused now Should I have to learn spring MVC as well or not if i am learning Spring boot

dan1st•9mo ago

Nothing stops you from using Spring Boot together with Spring MVC

DanixOP•9mo ago

Do u have any roadmap that i can follow up Bcz that will really help me alot
