Eclipse craches(noreason) after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04

[Marija V]

It fails after opening or during writing some code, after auto-complete or when I'm not doing anything!

On terminal:

marija@marija-laptop:~$ eclipse

the complete log is missing (/home/marija/hs_err_pid12647.log)
does this happen with the eclipse version distributed with Ubuntu?

I am facing the same problem...

It occurs when we try to use auto complete option.

Same problem since a while.

[Sajid Ali Deshmukh (sajid-deshmukh)]

Hi minoan_boy, if you are having the same issue (crashing due to auto complete feature) then it is caused due to bug in xulrunner.

try removing xulrunner1.9.1

sudo apt-get remove xulrunner-1.9.1

this should fix the issue.

[minoan_boy (aventresque-deactivatedaccount)]

Thanks. So far it solved the problem.

I was experiencing the same problem (frequent crashes while editing in Eclipse), and removing xulrunner as described in comment #4 above seems to have helped in my case.
