JVM issue with eclipse Juno and OpenSuse 12.3

Hello,

I installed Eclipse Juno 64 bit application on OpenSuse 12.3 and having issues. I have installed this on 12.2 successfully and followed the same process on 12.3 and getting the following error. My java version is:

kkurukkal@itg16:~> java -version
java version “1.7.0_17”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_17-b02)
Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

When I tried to launch the eclipse, I am getting the following error.

kkurukkal@itg16:~> cd /opt/eclipse
kkurukkal@itg16:/opt/eclipse> ./eclipse
Eclipse:

I compared my installation on OS 12.2 vs OS12.3 and noticed that /usr/lib/jvm is missing on OpenSuse 12.3. But on 12.2, this was created by default. I am not sure if this is a bug. I would really appreciate if someone can guide me on how to fix this issue.

Thanks,

:~> echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib64/jvm/jre

Hi vazhavandan,

Thanks for getting back. My JAVA_HOME was set to the same jvm like yours. Please see below. Also, I am running 64 bit version of the eclipse Juno.

kkurukkal@itg16:~> echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.7.0

After spending some time on this, I managed to get the eclipse running now. But, it crashes with the following message.

A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007fa560e73ba0, pid=9267, tid=140348489680640

JRE version: 7.0_17-b02

Java VM: Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM (23.7-b01 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops)

Problematic frame:

C [libgobject-2.0.so.0+0x19ba0] g_object_get_qdata+0x20

Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled. To enable core dumping, try “ulimit -c unlimited” before starting Java again

An error report file with more information is saved as:

/opt/eclipse/hs_err_pid9267.log

If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:

HotSpot Virtual Machine Error Reporting Page

The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.

See problematic frame for where to report the bug.

I followed the instructions as above and I was still getting the same issue. Finally, I saw a posting on one of the websites with a workaround to run Eclipse with the environment variable MALLOC_CHECK_ set to 0. For now, I am able to run the eclipse. But, I would like to see a permanent solution from OpenSuse to address this issue.

Thanks,

K

Mine is a openSUSE 12.3 frsh install
I did not even install openJDk-devel (no jdk is installed). i have only the openJDK JRE installed
I had downloaded “eclipse-jee-juno-SR1-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz”(this is core java + server components versions) from eclipse.org through torrent
After extracting it using file roller in nautilus i just needed to double click on executable /home/<profilename>/Software/Java/eclipse
I could open eclipse and even run a sample program.

Thanks again. I had to install the Oracle JDK due to my project requirements. I didn’t try with the OpenJDK. It may have worked right out of the box. Anyway, for now, I am good and will continue to look for some perfect solutions and post it on this forum for others.

Cheers!

Who/what has to set JAVA_HOME? Mine is empty.
