I'm trying to install Java JDK 16.0.1. When I double-click the install file in the Downloads folder, it prompts me to allow changes, then does absolutely nothing.
I did some digging around in my %appdata% folder to look for crash reports/logs. It turns out every time I double-click the install file, it crashes with:
Exception Code: 0xC0000005
Exception Information: The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access.
I do have Java Runtime Environment 1.8.0_291 installed, but that shouldn't prohibit the JDK installer, should it?
I also do have Java Runtime Environment 1.8.0_241 installed, and can't seem to be able to uninstall it. Could this be the problem? When trying to uninstall it, it looks for jre 1.8.0_241patch.msi, but can't find it. Regardless, this first issue shouldn't be a result of this old JRE install, correct?
I found this on the OpenJDK bug system:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8202316
for that user it was happening with the JDK 8 installer but the behavior sounds identical to the issue that you're having. In that post the original poster says "Problem solved. JDK 8u162 installer didn't remove all registry values of 8u152."
Now, I don't know why that's an issue; multiple JDKs should be able to peacefully coexist, but it might be worth a shot in your case before going to the length of doing a fresh reinstall of windows:
uninstall the JRE 8 version (your 1.8.0... version)
use tool or manually clean up any leftover java registry keys if necessary
reboot PC
try JDK 16 installer again
If you truly just have a JRE of version 8 and not a full-blown JDK, you could try using the java uninstall tool here:
https://www.java.com/en/download/help/uninstall_java.html
Also, I did find this old page about manually tracking down java registry entries (from 7.0 and older):
https://java.com/en/download/help/manual_regedit.html
Well, hope this helps. Be sure to let us know whether you get it solved, I'm curious to know. Thanks!

I have formatted my Mac due to some storage issues. Before this, I used Eclipse in a proper way. Now i have installed the JDK
Then, i have installed Java
Until now everything seems to be correct but when I open the Eclipse installer...
What can I do to fix this? I need to work with this the soon as possible.
Thanks
Eclipse on macOS will not start with Java 14 installed, this is being tracked in Eclipse bug 561273.
Installing Java 8 as well does not help. You need to remove the Java 14 install. You could use the Java 13.0.2 release instead.
Eclipse have determined that the root cause of this issue is a change in Java 14 which is described in this bug report JDK-8238225. The fix for this should be in Java 14.0.1
Update: Eclipse runs fine with Oracle Java 14.0.1 so the issue has been fixed.
I also asked this question which was closed, that's why I answer what I have found out: Eclipse will not install on Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4, saying the above error message
Failed to create the Java Virtual Machine.
Deinstalling jdk and install an older one wouldn't help on its own because Eclipse is refusing to install in the first place (as mentioned above). What I have done:
i´ve installed an JDK with boost (you can try several, mine worked with Version 13)
I edited the installer:
Download the dmg file
convert the dmg-file with "hdiutil convert /dev/disk3s1 -format UDRW -o devimage"
mount the converted dmg-file with: "hdiutil attach -owners on devimage.dmg -shadow"
Edit the /Volumes/Eclipse/Eclipse.app/Contents/Info.plist: there is a section which is commented and there you can try the jdk version. You have to give the full path to the java executable, for example:
<string>-vm</string><string>/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-13.0.2.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java</string>
Then my eclipse started from the (already) mounted Eclipse image without complaining
I had the same issue myself a while back. In your Eclipsepedia it provided an example of what the eclipse.ini file looks like when your trying to specify a JVM. So just change the eclipse.ini file and then make sure that you have all of the correct documents in that path to match the example.

Still trying to get Eclipse IDE to work and running into Incompatible JVM error. I followed the steps here: I installed Java 7 but Eclipse keep saying that 1.6 is not suitable for this product
But unfortunately to no effect. Running OSX 10.9.5 and uninstalled the out-of-the-box version of Mac. The new version of Java seems to show up in the System Preferences. Please see attached screen capture. I've even done some of the basics like restart my computer, etc. Maybe there are other modifications I need to make to other files. I'm comfortable with Terminal but new to Eclipse and Java.
I have had the same problem as noted above. I could not get Eclipse to install because of Java incompatibilities. The sequence I followed goes like this:
Upgraded to MAC OS Sierra
Downloaded the Eclipse installer but was prompted that I needed to instal a legacy Java.
Installed Java 1.6
Was unable to install Eclipse and was prompted that I needed Java 1.7 or greater. Downloaded and installed Java 1.8
Ran the terminal code 'java -version' // this will check your jre version. This showed returned Java 1.6 despite the fact that I had upgraded to 1.8. The Java version listed in the Java control panel said 1.8
Tried multiple downloads of eclipse and Java and multiple restarts always with the same result.
Visited the Oracle web page noted above:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html I could not find the above reference to 8u73 and 8u74 but I did find and option to download 1.8.0_12. I did this. It installed without difficulty, and then I was able to install Eclipse without difficulty.
This took hours of my time. I hope this proves useful.
OK, so I don't really know what the problem was, but I simply fixed it by navigating to here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html and installing 8u74 instead of 8u73 which is what I was prompted to do when I would go to "download latest version" in Java. So changing the versions is what did it in the end. Eclipse launched fine, now. Thanks for everyone's help!
edit: Apr 2018- Now is 8u161 and 8u162 (Just need one, I used 8u162 and it worked.)
JRE is a Run-Time Environment for running Java stuffs on your machine. What Eclipse needs is JDK as a Development Kit.
Install the latest JDK (and not JRE) from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/pt/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html and you should be good on Mac!
Open up terminal and check what java version is currently set in your path variable.
You can do that by typing in your terminal
java -version // this will check your jre version.
javac -version // this will check your compiler version
If this shows incorrect java version but you have installed java 1.8 then you have to set path variable to the newer version of java.
To do that do add the line:
export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java/jdk1.x
to ~/.bash_profile (same as /Users/username/.bash_profile)
Then do this from the terminal to set the new variable
source ~/.bash_profile
Also what's your eclipse.ini set to ?
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7
EDIT:
Please open up terminal and type
find / -name "java" // This should find all folder named java on your file system.
Also how did you install java in the first place ?
Echoing the answer, above, a full install of the JDK (8u121 at this writing) from here - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html - did the trick. Updating via the Mac OS Control Panel did not update the profile variable. Installing via the full installer, did. Then Eclipse was happy.
Here are steps:
download 1.8 JDK from this site
install it
copy the jre folder & paste it in "C:\Program Files (x86)\EclipseNeon\"
rename the folder to "jre"
start the eclipse again
It should work.
For some weird reason "Java SE Development Kit 8u151" gives this trouble. Just install, "Java SE Development Kit 8u152" from the following link-
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
It should work then.
I downloaded Eclipse (specifically that for C/C++ Programming) for Mac, running OSX Mavericks. When I try to start Eclipse, it gives me this message: "Version 1.6.0_65 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version 1.7 or greater is required", and it doesn't open. I installed Java version 7, but nothing changed. I don't know how else to update the JVM (I don't know much about Java in general).
I downloaded the 64-bit version for my MacBook Air, if that matters.
Simply Install the JDK 7 or JDK 8, and not just the latest JRE.
Run whereis java in a Terminal. It will normally display something like /usr/bin/java.
Now run java -version. It shows you 'java version 1.6.0_65' or something approaching. This is because Java 7 does not replace Java 6. Java 7 is installed as an Internet Plug-in and can be found in /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java.
What you need to do is to symlink /usr/bin/java to /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java.
Restart Eclipse, or reboot your computer (I don't know how Eclipse manages this), and it should do the trick. :)
I went to oracle downloads and the scrolled one of the several Mac osX links and downloaded jdk-8u73-nb-8_1-macosx-x64.dmg from oracle and that fixed the problem. I don't know why updating java doesn't do the trick.
add this script into 'eclipse.ini' at the top
'/Library/java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_77.jdk/contents/Home/bin'
Trying to install eclipse, I installed java version 1.6.0_65 as it requested yet still was blocked from finishing the Eclipse install with the error that I needed 1.7 JVM or higher - not true, installing higher didn't work either. I tried installing jdk-8u101-macosx-x64.dmg and that didn't work. So, I tried JDK 7 as advised, sorry no good.
So, to get the Eclipse installer to run with out that java error I had to edit the Info.plist inside the Eclipse Installer. Right click the Eclipse installer and show package contents, then open info.plist in textEdit.app
(Note: So after several tries editing this plist and following methods mentioned elsewhere nothing worked, I found that you have to use the symlink or java alias because java is installed differently now a days as an internet plugin.)
Where you want to make an edit (You should probably Backup the original or you can download it again), under <key>Eclipse</key>, then <array>, delete out what's there and add <string>-vm</string> and this string underneath; <string>/usr/bin/java</string>
Here is what mine looks like.
<key>Eclipse</key>
<array>
<string>-vm</string>
<string>/usr/bin/java</string>
<string>-keyring</string>
<string>~/.eclipse_keyring</string>
<string>-showlocation</string>
</array>
Then save and try running your eclipse installer; this worked for me.
Just running the below command from there terminal worked for me.
brew cask install java
It updated my idk with 1.8, and after that eclipse opens successfully.

Eclipse can't find the JDk or JRE
I have the latest JRE and JDK installed, however when I install Eclipse Classic 4.2 and try to run it, it displays the following message:
I have tried moving the installation to Program Files, as well as to the Java installation folder itself. The former generates no difference other than the path displayed in the message. The latter starts loading Eclipse, to the point that it shows the blue rectanglue loading box, at which point I get a different error message saying it couldn't load a particular.dll file in the Java installation. That said, I don't see why I would have to move the Eclipse files into the Java folder for it to work.
I used to have a working installation of Eclipse some time ago, which I uninstalled. Now I plan to use Eclipse, possibly with PyDev, in order to learn Python.
P.S. I realize this is not exactly a question involving coding, however I know I can't be the only one experiencing this issue. So hopefully others may benefit from seeing the response.
EDIT: The installation is now working. Here are the steps I took:
1) Make sure the JDK and Eclipse installations are both 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on your setup.
2) Add -vm
/absolute/path/to/jre6/bin to the top of the eclipse.ini file
Note: After reinstalling both Eclipse and the JDK, making sure the bit-type matched, step 2 was no longer necessary as Eclipse finally ran normally.
This question was asked before and the answer was very well written so just follow the link and read the answer to this.
Eclipse - no Java (JRE) / (JDK) ... no virtual machine
It worked for me.
As noted above:
Please refer to http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_run_Eclipse%3F#Find_the_JVM.
Also make sure that you're using a 64-bit JDK with a 64-bit bundle of Eclipse, and a 32-bit JDK with a 32-bit bundle of Eclipse.
By default, the 32-bit JDK will install into "Program Files (x86)", and a 64-bit JDK will install into "Program Files". Under 64-bit Windows, you can choose to use either 32-bit or 64-bit Eclipse/JDK - but the Eclipse bundle and the JDK must match. (I'd recommend 64-bit, as your OS supports it.)
