Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 The JVM is crashing while attempting to open a new workspace. I've found that some of the workspaces open when I move them from a subdirectory off my HOME directory to my HOME directory. I am running on Fedora Release 13 64 bit. The following is printed to stdout: # # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00000034bbe0d660, pid=3557, tid=139815447541520 # # JRE version: 6.0_22-b04 # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (17.1-b03 mixed mode linux-amd64 ) # Problematic frame: # C [libgobject-2.0.so.0+0xd660] g_object_get_qdata+0x20 # # An error report file with more information is saved as: # /home/ktomazin/apps/eclipse/hs_err_pid3557.log # # If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit: # http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport/crash.jsp # The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code. # See problematic frame for where to report the bug. # Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

I was assuming that this was more of a jdk bug than an eclipse bug, but I just backed off to galileo-SR2 and it works fine there so it seems to be an eclipse problem.

I am also having this issue all of a sudden. I have Eclipse 3.5 installed, but wanted to use Eclipse 3.6 for a class I am taking. I have then installed some plugins, and been using it couple times a week for about ~2 weeks. Now I'm trying to create a new workspace for another class, I get a fatal error after selecting a new workspace. I tried to copy the old workspace to a new location and see if that worked, but it still gave a fatal crash. I went back to Eclipse 3.5 and created a new workspace and that worked (.metadata directory is created). I would exit Eclipse 3.5 and open Eclipse 3.6 with the newly made workspace and it crashes. I will attach hs_err_pid14774.log

I think I found a workaround. Here is my environment: - Linux OS (Ubuntu) - One good workspace that was created and opened through Eclipse 3.6 (WS36) - One workspace that was created through Eclipse 3.5 (WS35) Case #1 Open WS35 in Eclipse 3.6 will cause fatal error Case #2 (workaround) Open WS36 in Eclipse 3.6, then switch workspace to WS35, and it opens. Case #3 (new workspace workaround) Open a new workspace with Eclipse 3.6, fatal error. So I opened a good workspace (WS36), then switch workspace, then create a new workspace, this works.
I removed all the workspace's from the Eclipse "startup and shutdown" menu, so I can have a clean list of workspaces. I then restarted Eclipse and pointed to a good workspace, and fatal error. So I opened the default workspace (/home/$user/workspace) and it opened. I switched to another workspace workaround, and I was able to get into the previous workspace. I think there's something going on with the splash screen workspace opener. Maybe a variable not being set?
