Eclipse 4.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 - "no such file" error - eclipse

I am working on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I would like to install eclipse 4.4. I did everything step by step with this site:
http://tutorialforlinux.com/2014/03/13/how-to-install-eclipse-4-3-kepler-standard-on-ubuntu-12-04-precise-lts-3264bit-linux-easy-visual-guide/
Now it is what I got after step 6 when I try to start eclipse:
zaba#zaba:~$ ls /opt/eclipse/
about_files configuration eclipse.ini icon.xpm
plugins about.html dropins
epl-v10.html notice.html readme artifacts.xml
eclipse features p2
zaba#zaba:~$ ls /usr/local/bin/
eclipse
zaba#zaba:~$ eclipse
bash: /usr/local/bin/eclipse: no such file or directory
zaba#zaba:~$
As you can see teoretically everything is on its place: 'eclipse' file in /opt/eclipse and its link in /usr/local/bin - I made it as in tutorial, by:
ln -s /opt/eclipse/eclipse /usr/local/bin/eclipse
But it does not work. Can anyone help, please?

since "A third-party application in /opt is supposed to be self-contained"
it should run through
/opt/eclipse/eclipse
if it does not, there is a problem either with your user or the executable, try just copying it to ~/bin

You might have a mismatch on 64-bit and 32-bit in your operating system and eclipse version.

Cannot launch CDT: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter

I am trying to use Eclipse CDT under Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I get the same error as many others, but I could not find a solution in what I read.
I try to launch with
$ eclipse &
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Ignoring option MaxPermSize; support was removed in 8.0
and I get
/home/user1/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.8_155965261/configuration/1551271296090.log
When checking /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/config.ini (as per this) I found the following lines (among others)
osgi.framework=file\:plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar
osgi.bundles=reference\:file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.0.301.dist.jar#1\:start
org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl=file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
As for the first two lines, I have files
$ locate eclipse.osgi_
/usr/share/java/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar
$ locate simpleconfigurator_1
/usr/lib/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.0.301.dist.jar
Nevertheless:
/usr/share/java/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar seems to belong to no package (a remnant of some old package?), since
$ apt-file search /usr/share/java/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar
gives no results.
I have ver 3.9.1

You are probably using an older Eclipse version that does not work with Java 9 or higher:
If using Java 9 or newer please use Eclipse 4.7.1a or newer as it contains fixes in Eclipse launcher to add all JVM modules.
Do one of the following to solve the problem:
Use Java 8 to run Eclipse (a JRE/JDK can be put in the subfolder jre of your Eclipse installation or be specified in the eclipse.ini file)
Upgrade Eclipse (recommended).

The JDK is missing and is required to run some NetBeans modules

Complete error message:
The JDK is missing and is required to run some NetBeans modules
Please use the --jdkhome command line option to specify a JDK installation or see http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqRunningOnJre for more information.
Some details: I just installed Netbeans on Linux mint for the first time and when I start it when its turning on modules this error message appears. But I do have jdk installed.
$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_66"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode)
$ javac -version

Find the file [netbeans installation directory]/etc/netbeans.conf
Luckily, Linux has a find helper like
find /home/ -name "netbeans.conf,
in which you can change the /home/ to a location where you want to search.
I found it at /usr/local/netbeans-8.1/etc/netbeans.conf
Once, you found the file, the following property needs to be set:
netbeans_jdkhome="[jdk_path]"
where you can find the jdk_path using:
update-alternatives --config java
In my case, I found it at /opt/java/jdk1.8.0_191
[Solved] For Mac OSX 10.11 (El Capitan).
Solution may be similar for other Unix-based systems.
The problem may have occurred because I inadvertently installed the jre
prior to installing the jdk. I uninstalled the jre, installed the jdk
and reinstalled NetBeans but the problem (popup window) remained.
However, the fix was fairly simple.
1. Make sure NetBeans is not running.
2. Make sure the jdk is installed.
3. Determine the location of the jdk:
The jdk location can be determined by entering the following (in Terminal):
$ /usr/libexec/java_home
For my system, the output was:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_121.jdk/Contents/Home
4. Edit the NetBeans configuration file to indicate the location of the jdk.
Near the bottom of this Netbeans configuration file (or equivalent for your NetBeans version):
/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans 8.2.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc/netbeans.conf
Comment out the following line (insert a # before the first character):
#netbeans_jdkhome="/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans 8.2.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/bin/jre"
Then, add the following line (or equivalent for your jdk version):
netbeans_jkdhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_121.jdk/Contents/Home"
Then, save and exit the editor.
5. Start NetBeans (no more popup window indicating that the jdk is missing).
When netbeans has problems trying to find the path of the jdk, it's mainly because the version of the jdk does not match. Open the file C:\Program Files\NetBeans 8.2\etc\netbeans.conf, and verify that netbeans_jdkhome = "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_111".
Open netbeans.conf
sudo nano "/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/netbeans.conf"
Set proper sdk path:
netbeans_jdkhome="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle"
Exit Ctrl + X and to save changes Ctrl + T
This error showed up when I updated the Mac to Mojave. To fix, I edited the netbeans.conf file with the current jdk by using Terminal to find the correct jdk. Type
/usr/libexec/java_home -V
Here was my output.
Matching Java Virtual Machines (4):
1.8.311.11 (x86_64) "Oracle Corporation" - "Java" /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home
1.8.0_131 (x86_64) "Oracle Corporation" - "Java SE 8" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home
1.8.0_25 (x86_64) "Oracle Corporation" - "Java SE 8" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home
1.7.0_79 (x86_64) "Oracle Corporation" - "Java SE 7" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_79.jdk/Contents/Home
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home
Entering the first jdk listed did not work.
I edited the conf file with the second one listed:
netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home"
Restarted Netbeans. That fixed it.
This worked for me
1. install full JDK
2. either edit <netbeans-IDE-installation>/etc/netbeans.conf
2.1 unmark netbeans_jdkhome
2.2 link to JDK location e.g. /usr/local/share/java/jdk1.6.0_07/
3. or use --jdkhome command-line option e.g. ./bin/netbeans --jdkhome /usr/local/share/java/jdk1.6.0_07/
take care with the "/" at the end

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:
Uninstall the netbeans you have.
Delete .cache/netbeans folder
Download http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-netbeans-jsp-142931.html
Install your download
I have this problem to. But now i resolove this problem with edit one line.
Find and open this file /etc/netbeans.conf
If you see netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_151" replace netbeans_jdkhome="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131"
Save as adminstrator
Problem reseloved
In mid April 2019, Oracle has changed the JDK's licence. However, I was still able to solve this issue with NetBeans 11 and the JDK 12's open source build on my Windows machine. Just downloaded the open source JDK from https://jdk.java.net/ and extracted it. Then, in my NetBeans config file, I typed in the path to the extracted directory (NOT the "bin" folder!).
I resolved this problem by changing default version of JRE and JDK that I'm using to 11.x.x with following commands:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javac

Eclipse maven unable to locate karma executable

I am able to run my Jasmin tests in Karma using the karma command line and maven command line, but when trying to run maven (eg. mvn install) from within STS 3.2.0.RELEASE (Eclipse Juno 4.2) I get the following error:
Failed to execute goal com.kelveden:maven-karma-plugin:1.2:start (default) on project store-webapp: There was an error executing Karma. Cannot run program "karma": error=2, No such file or directory -> [Help 1]
It's as if when Eclipse shells maven, it does not have /usr/local/bin in the path. Is there a way to configure the path eclipse uses when invoking maven?
My environment is:
Mac OSX 10.8.4
STS 3.2.0.RELEASE (Eclipse Juno 4.2)
maven-karma-plugin 1.2
karma 0.8.6 (installed globally via npm
install -g karma)
Node.js 0.10.12 (installed using the OSX package)
Jean
It appears in Mac OS X 10.8 (and possible earlier), GUI apps do not get the same path as the terminal. To add /usr/local/bin to the global path, you need to edit (and possibly create) /etc/launchd.conf to include setenv PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin You must edit/create this file with admin privs so use sudo with vi or nano sudo nano /etc/launchd.conf You will need to reboot your Mac before this change can take effect.

How to install Oracle JDK 7 and Netbeans IDE in Linaro 13.01 ubuntu tty1?

I have a Processor A13(cpu: cortex-A8 ARM v7) of allwinner and my OS is Linaro 13.01 Ubuntu tty1.
So how do I install Oracle JDK7 and Netbeans IDE on that?
If you're using Ubuntu, there are several ways to install NetBeans. One way is to use Ubuntu's "Software Centre" which you can use just to search to NetBeans and it should install it including all dependencies.
You can also use your web browser in Ubuntu and head to www.netbeans.org and click "Download" at the top right, there you can choose your operating system and download the correct version of NetBeans.
Once downloaded you can run the NetBeans installer through terminal using: sh ./<NetBeans file name here>. And the installer will start.
To install Open JDK:
However, you may need to download and install the JDK first; which you can also do in terminal by typing: sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk.
To install Oracle JDK:
This is taken from this link: http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Oracle-Java-JDK-on-Ubuntu-Linux
Remove open JDK from your system: sudo apt-get purge openjdk-\*
Create a new directory for the oracle JDK: sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/java
Download the Oracle Java JDK for linux by clicking here
Copy the Oracle Java binaries to the /usr/local/java directory: cd /home/userName/Downloads, sudo -s cp -r jfk-7u13-linux-x64.tar.gz /usr/local/java, cd /usr/local/java.
Extract the file: sudo -s tar xvzf jdk-7u13-linux-x64.tar.gz
Edit the system path file: sudo nano /etc/profile
Scroll to the bottom of the file and add this:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_13
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME
export PATH
Save the file and exit (Ctrl+X), then enter "y" for nano.
Let Ubuntu know where the Oracle Java JDK is:
LOCN="/usr/local/jdk7"
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "${LOCN}/bin/java" 1
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "${LOCN}/bin/javac" 1
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javaws" "javaws" "${LOCN}/bin/javaws" 1
Make sure Ubuntu knows to use this as the default JDK:
sudo update-alternatives --set java ${LOCN}/bin/java
sudo update-alternatives --set javac ${LOCN}/bin/javac
sudo update-alternatives --set javaws ${LOCN}/bin/javaws
Reload system path: /etc/profile, or just restart.
If you have trouble following my instructions then take a look at the link I posted above.
I would recommend using Open JDK instead though, as you can see; it's much easier to install.
I hope this helps.
Install Oracle JDK for ARM processor and Hard Float OS Image is here.
Oracle JDK for ARM Processor
And download Netbeans IDE 7.0.1 for Linux and install it.
Not to spoil your fun, but the A13 is a very weak SOC for this task.
I wouldn't even try anything below dual Cortex A15 with 2GB RAM (The Samsung XE303).
Oracle now releases the standard JDK8 for ARM Linux hardfloat so it is possible to install it on Debian/Ubuntu fairly easily:
Get JDK8 from Oracle's webpage (currently early access)
Extract th tar.gz-d JDK8 ARM/LInux/hfloat into /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0
Use update-alternatives (first answer)
Run "java -version" to check the results
..voila
I learned from Digital Ocean Docs how to manually install Oracle JDK on a headless ubuntu.
With a bit of Googling, I found following script to be useful.
wget --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u79-b15/jdk-7u79-linux-x64.tar.gz

Colorer Plugin in Eclipse Helios

I've been unable to get the wonderful Eclipse Colorer plugin to work with my current copy of Eclipse (Helios 64 bit). It installs ok but whenever I attempt to open a source file I get this error:
Error in initialization of native part of the Colorer library. This can be caused by absent net_sf_colorer.dll (libnet_sf_colorer.so) library in paths of java machine. Or, colorer can't find catalog.xml file, which must be placed in '%PLUGIN_DIR%'/colorer/catalog.xml'
Could not initialize class net.sf.colorer.ParserFactory
It has nothing to do with the version of Eclipse. Try a 32-bit Version, AFAIK Eclipse Colorer has no support for 64-bit.
I actually managed to make it run on a 64bit eclipse (indigo) by compiling my own version of Colorer. Once you know it's pretty easy: first you get the svn version:
svn co https://colorer.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/colorer/trunk/ trunk
cd trunk/eclipsecolorer/libnative
mkdir objs # not sure why make cannot do that..
make -f makefile.macos_64
Then you must create a new x86_64 directory in your eclipse plugin, and copy the lib there. In my case it was:
mkdir /Applications/eclipse/plugins/net.sf.colorer_0.9.8/os/macosx/x86_64
cp libnet_sf_colorer.jnilib /Applications/eclipse/plugins/net.sf.colorer_0.9.8/os/macosx/x86_64/
