I broke Eclipse... :-(
Today I thought I'd upgrade my IBM Java installations to the latest versions. I had Java 5, 6 and 7 installed, both 32-bit and 64-bit on my 64-bit Windows 7 system. The IBM installers insist on removing any existing version and then you have to run it again to install the latest. Something Bad happened with the Java 5 uninstallation and any uninstallation attempt errors with "1628: Failed to complete installation."
With this condition, and both 32-bit and 64-bit Java 6 and Java 7 installed (and 64-bit Java 7 the default), my Eclipse Juno fails to load with:
Help!

Are you on Eclipse Juno 4.2? What version of RTC is being used? This doesn't look a supported/tested version of Eclipse IDE from IBM, assuming you are on 4.0.1:

What's the error when you try to load Eclipse?

Mar 11 '13, 9:39 a.m.I have two separate Eclipse Juno installations -- one is just Eclipse Juno, the other is the Eclipse Juno Java EE in which I installed RTC 4.0.1. The both fail to start now. Screen capture of the error is attached.
