JVM terminates with exit code 14 when trying to launch Eclipse - eclipse

I've just connected to a machine I never worked on, and tried to run Eclipse there. Unfortunately, I got the error:
Eclipse:
JVM terminated. Exit code=14
(my configuration details here)
I guess there's either a problem with my configuration or with that machine's setup, but Exit code=14 does not give me a lot of information to go on. What does that mean? Where should I start?
I intentionally omitted my configuration details because I'm looking for a general explanation of that exit code, not a specific fix for my configuration.

It could be related to bug 9027: Workbench should check JDK version on startup
You could have an incompatible (ie too old) JVM: the code 14 has been referenced in this comment as:
The main launcher detects the JVM terminates with exit code 14. Is the
following message sufficient?
Please use a newer VM. Eclipse requires at least 1.3.1.
It can also be related with an incompatibility between what is installed on the system and what Eclipse needs when launching: see for instance this example.

Just to add to #VonC's answer, the Eclipse source code has this to say:
// Check to see if we are running with a compatible VM.
// If not, then return exit code "14" which will be recognized
// by the executable and an appropriate message will be displayed
// to the user.
if (!isCompatible())
System.exit(14);
(Source: http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/swt/trunk/src/plugins/org.eclipse.platform/src/org/eclipse/core/launcher/Main.java)
So I suggest checking whether you have a compatible JVM.

Running an Erlang Application in Eclipse is throwing an exception

I have installed Erlang OTP 25.0, erlide 0.56.0, Eclipse 2022-09 & Java 18. I have created a new Erlang project and module. I am facing 2 issues.
Issue #1:
Getting an error when I tried to launch the Eclipse after creating the Erlang project.
Issue #2:
When I tried to run the application, I am getting an exception "Launching App1 has encountered a problem. An internal error occurred during launching App1. Expected the service OtpNodeProxy 5756dc#null FAILED to be running, but the service has FAILED" as shown in the screenshot ErlangRunConfigException. Please help me in resolving the issue.
I have followed the procedure given below.
Installed Eclipse and Erlide plugin
Installed Erlang OTP 25.0 from https://www.erlang.org/patches/otp-25.0
Updated the environment PATH to refer to the Erlang installation path. I cross-checked this setting by typing "werl".
In Eclipse, Erlang InstalledRuntimes is automatically updated with the Erlang version 25.0. Refer to the screenshot ErlangInstalledRuntime
Created a Erlang project and module.
Edited the Hello.erl with HelloWorld code.
In Eclipse->RunConfguration, created an ErlangApplication (refer to the screenshot RunConfig-ErlangApp-Erlang). I set RunTime and Node name as shown in the screenshot RunConfig-ErlangApp-Runtime. Selected the Windows PATH as shown in the screenshot RunConfig-ErlangApp-Environment.
Hello.erl
```
-module(hello).
-export([hello_world/0]).
hello_world() -> io:fwrite("hello, world\n").
```

Eclipse Launching Error
Unfortunately, Erlang 25 doesn't load beam files older than v21, and the files included in erlide are that old. I am not really maintaining the project anymore, I can try to rebuild with v25, but can make no promises. Even then, the debugger will no longer work, it can be good to note.
The reported issue is seen with the latest Erlang version 25.0 and the older versions I have checked till 23.0. As a workaround, I have migrated to IntelliJ IDE.

Why does eclipse close by itself while running?

It's been happening lately for some unknown reason.I have the latest version of Eclipse ADT (25 Sept 2014) and it just shuts off while I'm working. Any ideas?
Start Eclipse from a terminal to see the standard output. Chances are that the Java VM runs into a problem because of SWT which can crash the VM. Note: If you're using Windows, you may have to use java.exe instead of javaw.exe to get output.
Also look into the Error Log. Eclipse has a view for that or look into the file .../workspace/.metadata/.log The file might contain an error message.
If you find an error in either the console or the error log, let us know and we might be able to help.
The issue could also be because of the JVM that was chosen for the project.

FB4Linux―debugger disconnects after a while

I am running ubuntu 12.04 64 bit, I have set up FB4Linux (FlashBuilder for Linux) and installed the »flash-installer« installer plugin via »apt-get«. I downloaded the latest version of the plugin-debugger from adobe and followed the install instructions from the included README.txt file. Running eclipse (Version: 3.7.2, Build id: I20110613-1736), creating a new as3 project works, build works, everything fine, I can start the debugger and step through the code BUT after a while the debugger just disconnects and stops. No error, no crashes, debug session just over.
Any Ideas?

I think , this is happenning more fequently due the enhanced breakpoint listener support in eclipse.When a breakpoint is removed, it is trying to notify its "breakpoint specific" listeners, which were stored in the breakpoint. Of course, this will not work since the underlying marker has been deleted. but things will happen after removing break point. so one way to resolve this problem is to try to un-select
Window > Preferences > Java > Debug : Suspend execution on uncaught exceptions
may this will help you!!
The solution to this issue occurred as side effect after I applied the changes from the answer of this question. When I tried to set the compiler options to target version 11.2, which is actually installed on my system errors occurred because their were files missing in the sdk folder (which are the described changes) and I could only develop for version 11.1. Kind of wired but the update of the sdk made the debugger run stable.

What could cause EasyEclipse to terminate with error window?

When I start EasyEclipse, I get error:
JVM terminated. Exit code=127
Do you have any idea as to the possible cause for this kind of error message?
If this happen right from the start, it may be related to your eclipse.ini content.
See this one (for Eclipse 3.6 Helios),
and check the end of each lines of your eclipse.ini: there should be no extra space.
After that, it depends on:
the exact Eclipse version
the exact JVM used to launch said Eclipse
your platform (OS)
See for instance bug 174642.

Hot Code Replace Failed (eclipse)

"Hot Code Replace Failed - add method not implemented".
I get this error message every time I change something in my test class (and save it).
Can't figure out what it means. Can somebody help?
Possibly, you have a test which is still running (in debug mode). Try finishing all tests (you can see them in the debug view: window->show view->debug) and try again...
See this thread:
This means you changed a class while it was debugging an application and it could not update the class for the application while it was running.
The error suggests you may be running an older JVM, i.e. pre-1.4.2 but this error can occur with any JVM if the change is incompatible with the previous version of the class.
Check carefully what JRE you are using in your debug session.
Also check you are deploying classes compiled with the debug attribute set. (see this thread)
Finally, as indicated here:
did you switch "Project->Build Automatically" off?
Hot code replacement works (only?) if automatic build is switched on...
I was running into this issues too. I found a build hiding in the backgound that was giving me fits. Check to make sure you have all tests/builds closed or completed. Nonetheless, you can still run the new code.
Whenever this error message appears it also gives options to terminate or restart. Select Terminate and it will terminate any running debug case which you are unable to locate.
if you have multiple projects involved, and multiple jre's installed, make sure all dependent projects are using the same javac/jre
Make sure your application server JRE and Eclipse JRE version should be same or else it will throw unsupported class version and hot code debug will not work.
I went to the same Problem,But my Debugging session ended hours ago.But still ECLIPSE error kept coming.
So I just simply restart the ECLIPSE IDE, then the problem just solved.
