A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: Internal Error ; Error: ShouldNotReachHere() - eclipse

Question

I have no idea what went wrong as I've programmed in Java for about a year and never got this error. Compiling and running in Eclipse worked just a minute ago and now I get this error:
#A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#Internal Error (classFileParser.cpp:3494), pid=4636, tid=2380
#Error: ShouldNotReachHere()
#JRE version: 6.0_25-b06

Answer 1

I had the same problem when running "pure java junit test" inside an android dev project.
so the solution was to do the following in Eclipse:
Add the std JRE to "properties --> java build path --> libraries"
While running, In the "runconfiguration --> classpath" remove Android (leaving only
std JRE)

Answer 2

Here is your relief for the problem :
I have a problem of running different versions of STS this morning, the application crash with the similar way as the question did.
Excerpt of my log file.
A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

Okay then little below the line :

This line tells you where the actual bug or crash is to investigate more on this crash issue please use below links to know more , but let continue the crash investigation and how i resolved it and the novelty of this bug :)
links ARE :
a fATAL ERROR JAVA THIS ONE IS GREAT LOTS OF USER!
a fATAL ERROR JAVA 2
Okay , after that here what i found out to casue of this case and why it happens a general advise.
Most of the time ,check that if u have installed , updated recently on Ubunu and Windows there are libraries like libsoup in linux whihc were the casuse of my crash.
Check also a new Hardware problem and try to investigate the Logfile which STS or Java generated and also syslog in linux by
tail - f /var/lib/messages or some other file
Then by carfully looking at those file the one you have crash log ... you can really solve the issue as follow .
sudo unlink /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1
or
sudo unlink /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1
Done !! Cheers!!

Answer 3

I've had a similar problem.
Error Log:
EAX=0x08aef338
0x08aef338 is pointing to unknown location
EBX=0x7c5e7000
0x7c5e7000: in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1 at 0x7c558000
Fix:
unlink /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1

Answer 4

Just check to see what file you're actually running when you hit the run button. I had the same issue when I wrote a "public static void main" statement in a "non-main" file of the program. I even commented it out, but it wouldn't work. This link was very helpful for me.

Answer 5

I just had this error and solved it by using 'Run As' and choosing 'Android Application'.

Answer 6

Looks like a corrupt class file. Rebuild.

Answer 7

Change the workspace.
I don't know the reason but this worked for me..
Hope this helps to you as well !!

Answer 8

I had the same problem after adding main method in one of my classes in an Android project. I just right click on the project and run it as an Android project and then it worked again!

Answer 9

I had faced the same issue. The command
sudo unlink /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1
was also not useful as it crashed my system network and not able to connect Wi-Fi or wired lan. Later i got the solution from here.
Adding line -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla at the end of eclipse.ini or org.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla at the end of /eclipse/configuration/config.ini file solved the issue.
