在Fedora 16上启动新安装的Eclipse时出现Java错误

Question

OS: Fedora 16, 64 bit arch

I get the following error when trying to open the newly installed Eclipse Indigo:

Process /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/bin/java was killed by signal 6 (SIGABRT)

I installed Eclipse by downloading the tar.gz and extracting it into /opt

Then I created an executable in /usr/bin and also a launcher in /user/share/applications

Eclipse splash opens where it lets me choose a workspace but then, when i pick one and hit OK, it crashed

the err log file can be found here

the problem remains even after upgrading to Java 7

thanks

Answer 1

i forgot to mention this was in KDE

i logged into GNOME -- Eclipse opened no problem

when i went back into KDE, the bug was gone. i can now use Eclipse :)

so the problem is solved. i still would like to know what was wrong.
