[SOLVED] Eclipse won't load workbench

Hey guys.

Today I wanted to reinstall eclipse, to get rid of some garbage that has accumulated over time.

So I just removed it.

pacman -Rs eclipse

And reinstalled it with pacman.

Now if i try to start up eclipse it asks which workspace I want to load and then gives me this error:

JVM terminated. Exit code=1
/usr/bin/java
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-jar /usr/share/eclipse//plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar
-os linux
-ws gtk
-arch x86_64
-showsplash /usr/share/eclipse//plugins/org.eclipse.platform_4.2.2.v201302041200/splash.bmp

-startup /usr/share/eclipse//plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar

-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-jar /usr/share/eclipse//plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar

Does anybody know where this error could come from?

The best would be if I could totally remove eclipse from my system and just reinstall it from scratch.

I really need eclipse to work, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Knuke

Hmm. It seems, that it has been solved by itself.

I simply did another remove, deleted the user files in the home dir, cleared pacman cache an reinstalled again.

pacman -Rcns eclipse
rm -r ~/.eclipse
pacman -Sc
pacman -S eclipse

Thanks anyway.

Re: [SOLVED] Eclipse won't load workbench

Update: and even with openjdk I have the same problem

Previously had it with Oracle's jdk

I have no ideas what to do, even deleted tons of things from workspace dir. And csrolling in the text editor crashes eclipse
