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.

I tried to download Java on my laptop (which has windows 10) but i keep getting a 1603 error. My computer used to have windows 8.1 and it did not work back then either
I appreciate any advice to solve or work around this problem
I have had this problem. I was able to fix it thanks to a co-worker. The problem started happening after I installed HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT, aka QTP). Installing this product changes the Windows environment variables used by Java. He told me the following: "So change the names of JAVA_OPTIONS, IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS to something else (both in system and user variables) and delete any Java folder(in Program Files (x86) or Program Files) which gets installed despite the error. Restart the system and then try installing Java."
Actually, all I did was rename the environment variables and run the installer. This worked.
My answer is not related to win 10, but might help someone who is having similar problem in windows 7 machine and not able to install jre 32 bit version.
the work around to this is once you downloaded the jre, copy the path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_121\bin\javaw.exe" and paste it under java runtime environment settings which is found -Java Control panel>java>view
I think you downloaded the wrong version. If your laptop support x64 bit software you should download Java 1.8 x64 version.
Here is the link.

I had this problem for a month now. I tried everything on my windows 8, but I couldn't get the latest java on it. When I tried to install java on an empty computer, the 64 bit version did not go through (error 1603) and I realized the problem didn't come from an old java install and I install 32 bit. it worked on the new computer with windows 7 and on my computer running 8.1.
note: I had deleted all the java versions before going through with it.
To fix java 1603 error you have to follow few simple steps.
First of all remove all old java version.
Then remove some windows update file which might be reason of this
error. Like KB2918614 update.
After that download and Install latest version of java and activate
java in browser. Now everything will be fine you can test the java
version on java website...

I encountered this error on Windows 8.1 and when I checked with Oracle web site, they said that is is not yet resolved, and under investigation. They also showed a link for off-line installation as an alternative arrangement. However, upon investigation of my system, i found out that the available space in C drive was only about 20 MB or so. I cleared my system and provided enough space. When I tried with the extra space, I didn't encounter any error. May be, you could try with a better free space...
First you should close the browser because if any webpage will use Java, it will cause conflict. Then do custom installation, i.e. install in some other folder other than default folder and point environment variable to newly installed Java location. It will resolve your issue.
After a couple of months with no Android development, I ran the SDK Manager yesterday, and upgraded from r16 to r18. After that upgrade, everything stopped working. I downloaded a fresh copy of the SDK tools from Google. The Windows installer complains there's no Java installed (the solution here , which used to work before, doesn't work).
I downloaded the ZIP file instead and put it in the right place. Running SDK Manager.EXE does nothing (it just returns immediately to the command prompt). Running tools\android.bat displays an error complaining "Failed to convert path to a short DOS path: c:\windows\system32\java.exe", and then suggests I install Java.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, with Java 1.7 (64 bit) properly installed (Eclipse runs well, the Android tools r16 ran very well until yesterday). c:\windows\system32\java.exe exists and works as it should.
What am I doing wrong?
UPDATE: I found an old r16 setup around. I installed it and everything went back to normal.
I put this one aside for a while, but now I had to get it back running. I didn't want to install a 32-bit Java VM alongside the 64 bit one I have.
I found the culprit. in android_sdk\tools\lib there's a batch-file called find_java.bat. It calls find_java.exe -s to find a list of potential Java locations. Running the exe file like this returns the error I've been seeing:
Failed to convert path to short DOS path: c:\windows\system32\java.exe
-s stands for short. Running it without the -s causes find_java.exe to work, causing find_java.bat to work, causing everything else to work. So the fix was to edit find_java.bat, and remove the -s .
I honestly don't know what Google is thinking.
My fix was to remove /bin from my JAVA_HOME, as in C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\bin --> C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\
I'm running 64bit java on W7.

This is just a guess, but I advise you to install JDK 6. It is said in the SDK requirements that you have to use it. I remember that I installed JDK 7 and I had some kind of trouble with it too.
Also it is safer to use the 32-bit version.
You need to also update the Eclipse plugins via Help > Install New Software.
I was able to fix same like problem by adding the jdk path to PATH variable in environment variables.
I am trying to work with Eclipse Helios on my x64 machine (Im pretty sure now that this problem could occur with any eclipse) but it just doesn't cooperate.
When I try to run eclipse I get the following:
I have installed
Helios EE x64 (latest version)
JDK 1.6.025 (x64)
I have linked my Environment Variables up correctly and tried to compile a Java file through cmd and have succeeded.
Whenever I tried running eclipse i get exit code=13 (required java version=1.5)
I tried running the following in cmd:
-vm "mypath\jdk1.6.025\jre\bin"
command as forums suggested
as well as other paths
-vm "mypath\jdk1.6.025\bin"
-vm "mypath\jdk1.6.025\jre\bin\javaw.exe"
even
-vm "mypath\jre6\bin" out of desperation
to no avail.
I am all out of ideas and I wonder if anybody had this problem. I even downloaded the helios x86 version and x86 JDK version yet it did not fix the problem. (I changed the environment variables)
I changed everything back but I'm stuck...
Related Question: Cannot Run Eclipse
It turns out that a directory had an ! in its name and eclipse had a problem with that.
Once I switched the directory (from Desktop which is located in the user directory which had ! in it to C:/ ) everything worked fine. (look at the Djava.class.path in the image located in my the question above for the whole path - it should make it clear what the problem was)
Vista allows you to create a username that contains ! character and then a lot of programs have issues with it
Update
If somebody is still getting this problem even though their path is ok I suggest
trying to look at the Environment Variables
then try uninstalling the Helios EE ( or any other version of ee you are running ) and JDK and then reinstalling the 86x versions of both (they should still work on the 64x platform).
for further explanation look here
Thank you everybody that tried to help
Please, check that your have downloaded the x64 version. ;)
And your installed Java, is x86. Use Eclipse x86 if you use Java x86.
Because your eclipse's env-arch was not matched with java-arch, for instance: eclipse-64bit run in java-32bit or vice versa.
In Windows: Set correct env path to the specific 32 or 64bit java acording to eclipse.
In Linux:
Try run: [path-to-eclipse]/eclipse -vm [jdk-path]/bin
What version of java is on your path when you start eclipse? Try entering java -version on a command prompt. You will want Sun java 1.5 or higher. See http://www.ehow.com/how_4784069_terminated-exit-code-error-eclipse.html
This turned out to be a permissions error for me. I change the kepler folder, eclipse root directory to have permissions set to everyone all. This is going to be a security risk so I will need to set the permissions to be program specific. using procmon.exe I found that javaw.exe was getting write permissions denied. The programmers of eclipse and javaw.exe did not give those programs elevated permissions to run as trustedinstaller.
I faced the same problem
Turned out my Java version in the PATH had been updated to 1.8
Once I changed this back to 1.7, my Eclipse started without issues
