    Using MyEclipse 5.5.1 GA on Win32 machine.
    Evidently I corrupted something when I killed a hung javaw process. I reinstalled MyEclipse 5.5.1 GA but I still get an error box when I try to start MyEclipse:

    Java Virtual Machine Launcher
    Could not find the main class. Program will exit.

    Then I get:

      JVM terminated. Exit code = 1
      C:\JAVA\MyEclipse 5.5.1 GA\jre\bin\javaw.exe -Xms128M – Xmx512M -XX:Permsize-64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
      -jar C:\JAVA\MyExlipse 5.5.1 GA\eclipse\startup.jar
      -os win32
      -ws win32
      -arch x86
      -launcher C:\JAVA\MyExlipse 5.5.1 GA\eclipse\eclipse.exe
      -name Eclipse
      -showsplash 600
      -exitdata b94_e8
      -vm C:\JAVA\MyExlipse 5.5.1 GA\jre\bin\javaw.exe
      -vmargs -Xms128M – Xmx512M -XX:Permsize-64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
      -jar C:\JAVA\MyExlipse 5.5.1 GA\eclipse\startup.jar

    Have you tried using the -clean command ?

    Incase that doesn’t help, here is an FAQ on how to perform a clean reinstall

    I tried the -clean. No help.

    I was able to start MyEclipse with:

    "C:\JAVA\MyEclipse 5.5.1 GA\jre\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M -jar "C:\JAVA\MyEclipse 5.5.1 GA\eclipse\startup.jar"

    Of course this bypasses eclipse.exe and the startup stuff it does. I’ll try the clean install next.

    thanks,

    Okie. Let me know if the clean install helps.
