"NLS missing message" Error for Eclipse while installing it

2.5k Views Asked by At

enter image description here

I downloaded the latest eclipse setup and tried to install it in my PC, but I get this error

NLS missing message: ECLIPSE_STARTUP_ERROR_CHECK_LOG in: org.eclipse.osgi.internal.messages.ExternalMessages

But when I used the same setup file in another PC, it got installed. Here both the PCs are installed with the same version of the Windows 10 and the Hardware is identical.

Now what am I missing here that I am unable to install it.

Before I posted this question I saw a lot of similar question related to the same error with Eclipse. But for those all problems the error occurred after installing the Eclipse while opening the workspace. Hence the solution given to them don't work much for me.

For me I get this error the moment I run the setup.

I faced the same issue. I found that the zip was not correctly extracted. Try to unzip with any uncompressing software like 7zip
