java 1.4 on win xp machine, with Java_home set and on the bin directory on the PATH environment variable, get this message on execution of the install:
LaunchAnywhere Error
Can’t launch executable
Could not create Java VM.
LaunchAnywhere error.The fastest work around for this is to download and use the Manual Install that we provide. It has detailed instructions included inside of the Zip which you can follow to install MyEclipse.
The instructions, when condensed down, are really a 2-step process that some prefer over the automated installer process. You just unzip the Zip to a dir, and then add a \links file for Eclipse to find MyEclipse. Please see the instructions included with the Manual Install for much more detail and screenshots.
For Windows Users:
The real “fastest” way is to open a Command Prompt and issue these commands:
set path=%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\system32;
set classpath=.
then execute the file you downloaded.Note: these settings are only applicable for the Command Prompt where you issued them. DO NOT change the System Environment Variables (e.g., do not make a global settings change).
The problem appears to be related to long classpath or path (not sure which since both are long).
Generally speaking, remove any spaces in your classpath by using the 8 character file names for directories that contain spaces (e.g., Progra~1 for Program Files…). You can see these names by issuing dir /x from a Command Prompt.
