Error Eclipse does not find JVM

Navigation
0

Hello, I use Linux Mint 16 and I installed eclipse and I rode around quietly, but after installing eclipse I uninstalled OpenJDK 1.7 and installed JavaJDK 1.8. I edited the / etc / profile file by adding these lines: 

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jdk8u1
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH export PATH JAVA_HOME
CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
CLASSPATH=.:$CLASSPATH
export PATH JAVA_HOME CLASSPATH

When you run the java -version and javac -version commands, the results are correct, showing that java has been installed successfully. I opened the eclipse again and this is the error that is appearing: 

Version 1.5.0 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.6 or greater is required.

It is as if the eclipse was only visualizing the java version that remains after uninstalling OpenJDK.

Can anyone help me?

There are two versions of Eclipse in Linux:

  • The version of the official Eclipse site is the one that talks to JavaJDK (Oracle official).
  • The version downloaded via repositories like apt-get is the one that talks to OpenJDK.

Try downloading the official website version to see if it works.
