Description matteo sisti sette CLA 2011-02-01 05:52:46 EST
Build Identifier: 

I installed the Eclipse C/C++ IDE on Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) following all the instructions (that is, simply, downloading and unzipping the pazkage), I ran it, and it automatically opened a "welcome" page. There I chose "overview" and then "C/C++ development" and there it immediately crashed, without any error message, it just closed itself.

Please let me know where I can find a log file I can post containing any information about the crash.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch eclipse
2. at the welcome screen, choose "overview"
3. in the menu choose "C/C++ Development"

=> It crashes.

However, this happened only once to me (but only tried twice).

The log file is ".log" in the ".metadata" directory of your workspace.
Comment 2 Anton Leherbauer CLA 2011-05-12 05:57:44 EDT
The description indicates a JVM crash.  You should find a crash log file named hs_err_pid<pid>.log in the directory where you started eclipse or in /tmp.

Assuming a JVM crash.
