Error starting Eclipse in Linux: “JVM terminated. Exit code=13”

by

Looking at the paths in the error it seems that you are not using eclipse from the ubuntu repositories (that’s fine imo).

  1. Check if the jvm is 64 or 32 bit. java -version will tell you. If you find this is a 64-bit jvm then go back to eclipse.org and download a eclipse version for 64-bit. You have eclipse for a 32-bit jvm. See your error message where it says -arch x86

  2. Try to start eclipse from a shell using the -vm parameter. On ubuntu you can find the installed jre/jdk’s under /var/lib/jvm/. E.g.:

./eclipse -vm /var/lib/jvm/sun-java6-jdk/bin

You could add this parameter to your eclipse.ini file.

Helps?
