title: Eclipse Installer returns error message on Sierra
body: <p>Launching the Eclipse mac installer 64 bit (Eclipse Installer.app downloaded from <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index-developer.php?oxygen" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index-developer.php?oxygen</a>) on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.3 fails and displays the alert message :</p>
  
  <p>The JVM shared library "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/../lib/server/libjvm.dylib"
  does not contain the JNI_CreateJavaVM symbol.</p>
  
  <p>My System Preference panel tells me that I have the recommended version of Java (Java 8 update 121).</p>
  
  <p>I tried different things as suggested on different posts (including <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24023956/eclipse-wont-start-after-installing-mac-os-x-yosemite-mac-os-10-10">Eclipse won&#39;t start after installing Mac OS X Yosemite (Mac OS 10.10)</a>) :</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I made sure to use the 64 bits version</li>
  <li>I tried to go back to Java 6 (downloaded from Apple website) but then I get a message telling that I need the latest version of Java (Java 8) to install Eclipse</li>
  <li>I tried older versions of Eclipse (Mars, etc.) but the installer returns  the same alert message</li>
  <li>I tried to re-install Java after editing SystemVersion.plist as suggested <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24023956/eclipse-wont-start-after-installing-mac-os-x-yosemite-mac-os-10-10">here</a> but got the same message.</li>
  <li>I installed Java from the <a href="https://jdk8.java.net/download.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">jdk8 website</a> and JDK from the <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">oracle website</a> (as suggested by greg-449) but still the same alert message.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Thanks for your help.</p>
