Crash of Eclipse 3.6.1 on Linux x86 64 bits, because of OSGi file locking
Case:
On launching Eclipse 3.6.1 under Linux 64bits, I get the following error:
Locking is not possible in the directory "/opt/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi". A common reason is that the file system or Runtime Environment does not support file locking for that location. Please choose a different location, or disable file locking passing "-Dosgi.locking=none" as a VM argument. /opt/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/.manager/.fileTableLock (Permission denied)
Fix:
Edit /opt/eclipse/eclipse.ini, add or move the line:
-Dosgi.locking=none
at the end of the file, or at least after the argument -vmargs
