What is wrong? My Ubuntu version is 10.04 but I do not know if that plays any role here.

Answer 1

You need to add

[Desktop Entry]

to the top of your file--it's the group name that command is looking for. See here for more information about desktop entries.

Answer 2

In order to install Eclipse you only need to have a working JDK installation and the unzip the eclipse bundle and finally execute eclipse.

To install OpenJDK from ubuntu repositories you can do this.

sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk

OpenJDK7 does not seem to be in 10.04 repositories.

You can always install Oracle JDK manually but perhaps you should think about upgrading you ubuntu installation to the latest LTS release.

Answer 3

Try This option.

• change permission for eclipse dir sudo chmode -R 755 -R /opt/eclipse .

• Java Home

open gedit /home/[user]/.bashrc Add that two line at the end .

export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk1.(xx version)

export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME:$JAVA_HOME/bin

Update

• As mentioned by @Allison

  You need to add [Desktop Entry]
