Do you receive this message?
A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse
No Java virtual machine was found after searching the following location
Home/jre/bin/java
Java in your current PATH
Eclipse not working on MAC OSX – No java virtual machine was found
Solution
In the Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/eclipse.ini file put
-vm /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home/bin/java
right before
-vmargs
Pay attention, the carriage return is important after “-vm”
eclipse not working – No java virtual machine was found – MAC OS X
Remaining issue
On my computer, after installing aptana studio 3 (http://www.aptana.com), the Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/eclipse.ini was overwritten and I had to update the file again
