I have problem with running my Eclipse. I tried 3.7, 4.2 and 4.3 versions with java 6 and java 7. Nothing can help me. It shows me popup screen but it doesn't start to load( I dont have chance to choose workspace).
Starting it with -debug -console parameters shows that it stops running in this moment:
Time to load bundles: 10
Starting application: 6374

I have started JVisualVM but I cannot observe anything special. There are no deadlocks etc.
Edit
My observations were to deep... After ~60s pid of eclipse is dead.
Edit 2
Now it stops on
Time to load bundles: 8
org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration: The org.eclipse.m2e.logback.configuration bundle was activated before the state location was initialized. Will retry after the state location is initialized.
Starting application: 3557

I have managed to start it but only with -clean parameter and with choosing workspace from command line -data parameter.
I've had exactly the same problem and could solve it using the answer here https://stackoverflow.com/a/5504530/1275767 which works by moving the projects out of the workspace and back in again after Eclipse has been started and stopped.
Starting it with -clean -data started eclipse but whenever I switched the workspace using the eclipse gui it wouldn't load.
