JVM: could not open

Question

Error - JVM - BlackBerry 9800 Simulator --------------------------------------- JVM: could not open C:\Users\Bayron.Tellez\Downloads\eclipse-java-helios-win32\eclipse\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack6.0.0_6.0.0.29\components\simulator\Java\net_rim_bis_lib.cod

My friend installed Eclipse with the Blackberry simulator. I'm assuming it was a portable installation because at no point we were prompted to install.

Now, he zipped it up and copied it to my machine when running I receive that error above. Obviously it's because it's trying to look for something on my friends directory. How can I change it to my path?

My path is:

C:\Eclipse\eclipse\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack6.0.0_6.0.0.29\components\simulator\Java\net_rim_bis_lib.cod

Where do I change this?

Answer 1

I would suggest not running eclipse from a copy of someone else's installation. This will probably contain lots of installation-specific files which are unlikely to match your machine.

Why not install it yourself, then install the Blackberry Java Developer plugin? It's available at http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/javaappdev/devtools.jsp

Answer 2

It will be better you install it yourself frsh rather than copying it from friends machine.

But you can give it a try.

Goto your eclipse\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack6.0.0_6.0.0.29 directory and check do on of these files contain this path:

1. plugin.properties
2. plugin.xml
3. META-INF/eclipse.inf
4. .options

Or else you could grep for problem path in your plugin directory and replace same with updated path.

Answer 3

Hi, You may also want to check file Settings.rc, found in the folder PATH\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpack4.6.1_4.6.1.49\components\bin

first you have a path to your eclipse installation, and then corresponding Simulator you are trying to run.

hope this helps, kind regards Hrvoje
