Hi, Can you try the following ? Open up the IDE. go to windows -> settings -> java -> installed JRE s, and see whats there. You may need to replace that with the path to the JDK.
If that doesn't work, you should try adding the -vm args to the eclipse.ini file. I found this link ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2222560/build-failed-question-maven-jre-or-jdk-problem) which outlines the solutions pretty clearly. If this doesn't work, I'd recommend trying out this ( http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/Unable-to-locate-the-Javac-Compiler-Problem-td133804.html ) Hope this helps.
