Description Kenneth Ford CLA 2011-06-05 16:34:22 EDT
Build Identifier: Eclipse Helios 3.6.2

I cannot start the workbench so I do not have the exact build ID. When I click on the Eclipse Icon, I get a message saying that the Workbench cannot find the java executable  because the directory path does not point to it. It is in fact on my computer. The same thing happens when I start up MOTODEV for Android. I am trying to build apps using Android 3.0(honeycomb.) The web page I downloaded from is developer.motorola.com/docstools/motodevstudio/. Please advise

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download from above web page.
2.Click on Start up Icon.
3.Crash happens.

Where is your java JVM installed?  What version? 1.6/6.0?  Is it in your environment PATH?

With most probability its an issue with your JVM. Please reopen if you find anything suspicious in Eclipse
