Failed to open Eclipse(Ganymede or Gallieo same effect) on Fedora

[anutwalidera]

I have been using Eclipse Ganymede with open-jdk. However after I install manually java 1.6 jdk and remove open-jdk from Fedora it gives me a error like below. I can see java version by writing java --version command and other programs can run on my machine like SQL Developer by Oracle which requires Java-JDK.

JVM terminated. Exit code=-1

Can anybody help me to overcome this issue ?

Dear fedora users;


I have manage to solve this problem by pointing my JDK in my eclipse.ini file

you should point your JDK in here like that in an separate line;

eclipse.ini
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-vm
/opt/jdk1.6.0_13/bin/java
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m

Bold lines are important after changing these lines eclipse works without an error.
This should help...

or the second solution is that to give

eclipse -vm /pointtoyour/jdk/bin/java here
