#126 MacOS/Java6: Can't startup EasyEclipse 1.3

[John Crossman]

Specs:

* EasyEclipse Expert Jave 1.3
* Mac OS 10.4
* Java 1.6

When I start EasyEclipse from the Finder (ie, Desktop) I get a "JVM Terminated" error in a massive dialog box that gives nothing but useless error codes and illegible stacktraces.

When I run on command line I get:

./eclipse
2007-10-12 15:32:39.976 eclipse[1132] CFLog (21): Cannot find executable for CFBundle 0x34b660 </System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework> (not loaded)

Has anyone else seen this? Is there a quick fix?

I think this a problem with the Apple java 1.6 jvm which still unfinished. Could you try with Java 5?

I had to "rollback" my symlink hack (used to get Java 6 running on Mac OS) and specifically, get
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current

linked to
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/A

That fixed the problem.
