I installed Eclipse Europa (3.3) and Eclipse Ganymede (3.4) but could start none of them. Starting eclipse fails with
I eventually found a fix, that requires to change the eclipse.ini file (I replace « new lines » with « spaces »)
Hope this helps!
Othere suggestions include:
- changing the vmargs parameters (also suggested by bobobobo) and in particular changing the maximum heap size1
- completedly blank out the eclipse.ini file (which obviously fixes the incorrect new line character)
- reinstall a 64 bit version of Java (in case you are on a 64 bit OS)
- fixing the arguments after vmargs. This was obviously not the problem with my fresh installation, ubt maybe it can help other people.
- I suspect this reformats the new lines as well, depending on the editor used [↩]

Thanks for pointing the mistake, filsa. I read (too) quickly your post (my environment was 32 bit, so I knew your solution would not help me).
I have corrected the post.

Hey, thank you, that line breaks were exactly the problem, which made my Eclipse don’t start! Now it works

What’s wrong. I had to do yet again the same thing for Eclipse Galileo (3.5)

Just couldn’t believe my eyes. I had the same problem with Galileo, 32-bit OS, 32-bit JDK. Everything was working great until one day when eclipse just wouldn’t start anymore, the same error message. I tried to reinstall JDK, but it has nothing to do with it.
Replacing new lines with spaces in eclipse.ini did the trick. Thanks a lot!
Actually, I recommend getting the right version of Eclipse — 64bit — if you are on Vista 64 and getting these JVM Terminated -1 errors.
I have updated my post to make this more clear.
Cheers!
