I have successfully installed Oracle Java 64 bit version on my machine (checked with java -version). Later I have downloaded Eclipse Kepler 64 bit but when I start it, it does not work and it is giving me the Error popup with message An error has occurred. See the log file /home/nandkumar/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.8_155965261/configuration/1384713086093.log

So I checked log file, see below log file contents :

  • Oracle Java and Ubuntu are not the best friends. I would remove Oracle, install OpenJDK and try to use eclipse. Otherwise, the Eclipse included in the repositories should work. – Braiam Nov 19 '13 at 18:57
  • I am using latest oracle java with Eclipse kepler and Spring tool suite on ubuntu 13.04, it has some issues with 13.10 ,but works fine with 13.04. – Sukupa91 Nov 26 '13 at 06:49
  • Could you please explain how you got STS working in 13.10??? – apos Jan 04 '14 at 12:39

I don't know what problem was but it got away when I completely removed java(Oracle and Open JDK) using this thread. And again I installed Oracle java using this thread.

The error you are getting is just becouse your JDK(Java Devlopment Kit) is missing JCE (Java Cryptography Env.) functionality .I think some countries can only obtain "crippled" JDKs like that due to US export control restrictions. You can't run Eclipse with such a JDK. One thing you can check... in your JDK install, look for a file:

/java/jdk1.7.0_40/jre/lib/security

Make sure that it has a line like this:

security.provider.1=sun.security.provider.Sun

This sets "Sun" as your cryptography provider. This is usually the default for a Sun JDK but perhaps it has been turned off in your JDK.

then check out the outputs of

java
javac
javaws

If it shows an error then you need to install Java again by this method the problem is definitly in JDK So install it correctly by downloading Latest Oracle Java from official site as per to your Ubuntu System Architecture and then reinstall eclipse again by following procedure and make sure you have removed previously installed eclipse completely ..

I am assuming that you have downloaded eclipse kepler in Download folder in home,

cd Downloads

if its for 64 bit then otherwise .gz name would be diffrent for 32 bit

tar xvf eclipse-standard-kepler-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
sudo mv eclipse /opt

provide your password,and make link by 

sudo ln -s /opt/eclipse/eclipse /usr/bin/eclipse

now just make eclipse.desktop by

sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/eclipse.desktop

and paste the following lines for eclipse icon 

[Desktop Entry]


Name=Eclipse
Type=Application
Exec=/opt/eclipse/eclipse
Terminal=false
Icon=/opt/eclipse/icon.xpm
Comment=Integrated Development Environment
NoDisplay=false
Categories=Development;IDE
Name[en]=eclipse.desktop

Eclipse Kepler is now ready to use.

Found this:

I have got the same issue in an AMD64 machine (Ubuntu 12.04). and solved it by a workaround:

copy: files containing '3740' in /usr/lib/jni/libswt-*3740.so to ~/.swt/lib/linux/x86_64/

But, be sure the packages : libswt-gtk-3-java & libswt-gtk-3-jni are installed.

sudo apt-get install libswt-gtk-3-jni libswt-gtk-3-java

And

sudo cp /usr/lib/jni/libswt-*3740.so ~/.swt/lib/linux/x86_64/

if you have a 32 bits based system : sudo cp /usr/lib/jni/libswt-*3740.so ~/.swt/lib/linux/x86/
