Error occurred during initialization of VM (java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object)

Go to Eclipse folder, locate eclipse.ini file, add following entry (before -vmargs if present):

-vmC:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_10\bin\javaw.exe

Save file and execute eclipse.exe.

windows eclipse java java-7

please try to execute java from

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_10\bin

i.e from the location where java is installed.

If it is successful, it means that the error lies somewhere in the classpath.

Also, this guy seems to have had the same problem as yours, check it out

windows eclipse java java-7

Check that downloaded eclipse/JDK/JRE is compatible with your processor/OS architecture that is are they 32bit or 64bit?
