1Found an quick solution, you just need to download the latest version of java runtime envioroment (JRE) and that will do the trick http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html – Cesar Hernandez Jul 28 '17 at 18:13

I had the same problem this morning. There are two practical ways to solve it:
- Download the right version (probably DBeaver 64Bit version). You must actually find out which JRE-version your computer is running.
- Change the JVM DBeaver is using: Go to the DBeaver-directory and add the lines below on the top of the
dbeaver.ini
file. Be aware that the line break is important!
Of course you must have the right jdk installed where the directory is pointing to.-vm C:/path/to/your/jdk/jdk-8u144-windows-x64/jre/bin/server/jvm.dll

1For me, it was enough to add `-vm \n C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_102\jre\bin` (Windows obviously). The linebreak was important. Without it, DBeaver didn't start. – xJREB Apr 30 '19 at 14:00

I've used like `-vm D:\Progs\Java64\bin` PS: 'D:\Progs\Java64\bin' part must be in the new line. – Turker Tunali Oct 09 '20 at 12:43

I downloaded the 64bit zip version of Dbeaver and I got the same error. So I downloaded the 32bit zip version and that worked fine. I assume I have a 32bit version of java VM installed.

Starting with DBveaver version 6.0.1 only the 64-bit version is available and I had to install 64-bit JRE to make it work.
32-bit versions were obsolete in version 6.0.1 and later (because both Java and Eclipse platform are no longer support 32 bit). If you need 32-bit version of DBeaver then you can download version 6.0.0 or earlier or use DBeaver Enterprise.
