Eclipse install for Java EE not working

Thread view:

I am trying to install Eclipse EE IDE on my Windows XP.
After I download and extract Eclpse and click on the install icon it
shows a long pop up message:
jvm terminated. Exit code = -1
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion = 1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
...

I have Jdk 1.5.0_06 and Jre 1.5.0_06 loaded.
And I was able to install the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers with no
problem but cant install the IDE for Java EE Developers.

I deleted the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers hoping that was the
problem but still cant get the Eclipse for Java EE to install.

Please advise.

I have exactly the same problem with the latest Eclipse EE.
Environment: jre 6u3, jdk 6u3, j2ee 5u3
Moreover on my home PC with the same Java environment all works fine.
Is the any news for now

I don't know why but if change the line:
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
to
-launcher.XXMaxPermSize
in file eclipse.ini it works!
