Issue
I've tried to install eclipse, but it's connected to the web page displaying the following error and I couldn't install it.
Unfortunately the Java version needed to run Eclipse Installer couldn't be found on your system. You need the following version or a higher version: Java 1.8.0 (64 Bit)
But my JDK version is Aleady 1.8.0_231(64Bit) and i completed setting up the environment variable. (JAVA_HOME, and Path as System Variable)
Normally, using a different IDE like InteliJ(and it works normally on my computer) can be a solution but it's not possible because I have to submit it as a university assignment using eclipse.
What should I do?
This is my CMD Screenshot with checking JDK version
Solution
For anybody else (especially other Koreans) who may be struggling with Eclipse installation, turns out that the installer won't work if your account user name is in Korean. Specifically referring to the name that shows when you run your command prompt (as shown in the poster's image hyperlink) or at C:\Users -- if that name is in Korean, that it turns out that Eclipse installer will not work even if most recent Java is installed and paths are set correctly.
Easy way to get around this issue then is to create another local account with only English characters, and run the installer. Not sure why this happens, but it seems to be a common pattern I noticed with the most recent version of Eclipse installer.
It seems installing Eclipse on the account with English characters only still does not allow Eclipse to run, so I have to be signed into that account if I'm using the laptop. Maybe someone who can deal with this issue in a more efficient way can help us out?
