Title: Windows 7 jvm.dll file failed to load error
Post by: Chachii on November 20, 2011, 06:48:49 PM

I'm running Windows 7 64 bit on a custom built computer with 8 GB ram, AMD Phenom II 3.7 GHz processor, Asus Motherboard, and a 1 GB HDMI graphics card. 

The program I'm trying to use is Eclipse 64 bit edition.  I have JDK and JRE v6 u29 installed to my computer.  When I run the program I get the following error:

Code: [Select]

Failed to load the JNI shared library "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll"
My internet security is IObit Advanced System Care and Malware Defender.  I've tried reinstalling JRE and JDK 6u29 a few times as well as Eclipse.  All of the solutions I've seen on Google you had to pay for.

I can't seem to find eclipse.ini.  Where would it be located?

The Eclipse install folder, by default; For example, I have Eclipse installed in D:\Programs\Eclipse. The ini file is D:\Programs\Eclipse\Eclipse.ini

I don't have Eclipse installed, I was never given an installer when I downloaded from the site.  I just opened a zip file and extracted the contents.  Where did you download the installer at?

the install folder would be wherever you extracted the zip.

Okay, I added that but it still gave me the error message.

What is "that" that you added. Did you make the appropriate replacements?

I thought I was just supposed to add

Code: [Select]

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\<your jdk version folder>\bin\javaw.exebut when I deleted everything but that line and

Code: [Select]

org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256mit worked.  Thanks.

Well that's good. You were supposed to replace the <your jdk version folder> with... well, your JDK version folder. Not sure if everything will work alright with a funked path.
