Eclipse crashes when opening Help Contents

Thread view: 
mark@corporatedigital.com - 12 Mar 2005 05:59 GMT
Hi all.
I'm a Newbie to Eclipse trying to get my feet wet.

I downloaded eclipse 3.0.1, set my JAVA_HOME path to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_07,
and ran my eclipse from c:\eclipse\eclipse.exe.

Everything is working fine for the main IDE. My problem is when I click
on Help Contents, I get this error dialog box (after about 15 seconds
waiting):

JVM terminted. Exit code=-2147483645
C:\j2sdk1.4.2_07\bin\javaw.exe
-cp C:\eclipse\startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
-os win32
-arch x86
-showsplash C:\eclipse\eclipse.exe -showsplash 600
-exitdata C:\eclipse\eclipse.exe -exitdata 580-28
-vm C:\j2sdk1.4.2_07\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-cip C:\eclipse\startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main

Any ideas?
TIA

Did you look in the Eclipse log file? Should be found in:

c:\eclipse\workspace\.metadata

Maybe there are some errors there?
