Hello,
I am devoloping my project with eclipse. everything was fine since yesterday. yesterday, I tried to entegrate apache-tika to my project. to install tika I downloaded maven (I did not have it before) and defined classpaths. I also downloaded sun java ee jdk (I did have jre but not sdk. I could not find any install packages just for sdk). Later I installed tika with maven. It builded with many errors. Later, when I tried to run eclipse, It gave me such an error: "A Java Runtime Enviroment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) Must be Available in Order To Run Eclipse. No java virtual machine was found after searching the following locations: ....( eclipseLocation)". I tried to copy all my jre files to eclipseLocation. This time it started with errors but did not build my project. Even tomcat starts with errors anymore. I removed sun sdk and my pre insatlled jre; reinstalled them to try different combinatins. but no help. my eclipse does not work anymore. what is wrong with it? Is it because something I did for tika with maven? Please help.. thanks...

The same thing happened to me. What i tried is just copied a jre into the specified path and renamed the jre folder as specified in the error. It worked to me.. I think this may help u..?

Thank you loganathans for the reply. I tried that. eclipse runs but many things corrupted. Nothing helps. I think I have to format my pc.
