Under Windows 10, you'll need to configure a third-party X Server or run XRDP as noted in the linked answer. There were some slight issues with dialog boxes not being properly sized (and the necessary button being 'outside' the window), but I was able to work around them. Under Windows 11 with WSL2/WSLg, the Eclipse installation works pretty much as expected. The DISPLAY error in the first line of the output means that you are likely trying to run it without having configured the GUI on WSL. Please see How to run GUI apps with Windows Subsystem for Linux on Super User. You don't mention your Windows version or WSL version, but it's important to note that Windows 10 WSL does not include the ability to run any Linux GUI apps out-of-the-box. I'm guessing you are also going to get an error with that.

I have successfully installed the Linux version of Eclipse under WSL2/Ubuntu with Windows 11.įirst, as a troubleshooting test, you should try something more lightweight. The problem is all the examples are for Ubuntu on Linux, and not Ubunto on windows via WSL. So I decided to go another route I downloaded eclipse-inst-jre-linu圆4Īnd getting the log error Caused by: : Could not initialize class .DisplayĪt .$Implementation.start(SetupInstallerPlugin.java:133)Īt .framework.BundleContextImpl$2.run(BundleContextImpl.java:813)Īt .framework.BundleContextImpl$2.run(BundleContextImpl.java:1)Īt java.base/(Unknown Source)Īt .(BundleContextImpl.java:805) Getting the error package 'eclipse' has no installation candidate Now I have tried the command sudo apt install eclipse I am using version 20.04.4 LTS (Focal Focus) I am trying to install eclipse using the ubuntu console on Windows 10.
