I've been trying to simply install Eclipse, but something went wrong apparently... I've even tried uninstalling Java and re-installing the latest Java hoping that would do something, but still nothing.

Here's what I get when I run the eclipse.exe file (This is a temporary laptop by the way):

Now I barely know anything about computers and all, so I'll need a really numbed down explanation... any help is appreciated!

  • @cxminer I literally can't follow up with anything in that link. I seriously don't know anything ;^; – Deion Dec 20 '14 at 09:46
  • Could you post output of 'java -version' within Command Prompt? – erikvimz Dec 20 '14 at 09:51

  • @Delon Sorry forgot to mention, I was interested in the architectue, either its x86 or x64. If you have a 64bit eclipse you also need 64bit java. But if you have a 32bit eclipse and a 64bit java, you shouldn't have any problems. You can see from the image you've provided that you have a 32bit java. – erikvimz Dec 20 '14 at 09:54
  • You have a 64 bit Eclipse and almost certainly a 32 bit Java. They must both be 64 bit or both 32 bit. – greg-449 Dec 20 '14 at 09:54
  • @greg-449 I'll go change that right away and see what happens. – Deion Dec 20 '14 at 09:59
  • @greg-449 Oh god you're a life saver, it's finally installing. Thank you so much! Can't believe I missed something so simple... – Deion Dec 20 '14 at 10:07

Try downloading a clean copy of Eclipse from their website. If that doesn't work, make sure you have both a 64-bit version of Eclipse and a 64-bit version of the JDK (or 32-bit Eclipse and 32-bit JDK). This can be solved by the version of the JDK required and editing the eclipse.ini file and adding filepath to the JDK.

For example:

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe

where C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exeis the path to the file.
