A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: Internal Error ; Error: ShouldNotReachHere()

Question

I have no idea what went wrong as I've programmed in Java for about a year and never got this error. Compiling and running in Eclipse worked just a minute ago and now I get this error:

Answer 1

I had the same problem when running "pure java junit test" inside an android dev project.

so the solution was to do the following in Eclipse:

• Add the std JRE to "properties --> java build path --> libraries"
• While running, In the "runconfiguration --> classpath" remove Android (leaving only std JRE)

Answer 2

Here is your relief for the problem :

I have a problem of running different versions of STS this morning, the application crash with the similar way as the question did.

Excerpt of my log file.

A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: #a #  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f459db082a1, pid=4577, tid=139939015632640 # # JRE version: 6.0_30-b12 # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM  (20.5-b03 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) # Problematic frame: # C  [libsoup-2.4.so.1+0x6c2a1]  short+0x11 

note that exception occured at # C [libsoup-2.4.so.1+0x6c2a1] short+0x11

Okay then little below the line :

R9 =0x00007f461829e550: <offset 0xa85550> in /usr/share/java/jdk1.6.0_30/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so at 0x00007f4617819000 R10=0x00007f461750f7c0 is pointing into the stack for thread: 0x00007f4610008000 R11=0x00007f459db08290: soup_session_feature_detach+0 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1 at 0x00007f459da9c000 R12=0x0000000000000000 is an unknown value R13=0x000000074404c840 is an oop {method}  

This line tells you where the actual bug or crash is to investigate more on this crash issue please use below links to know more , but let continue the crash investigation and how i resolved it and the novelty of this bug :)

links ARE :

a fATAL ERROR JAVA THIS ONE IS GREAT LOTS OF USER!

a fATAL ERROR JAVA 2

Okay , after that here what i found out to casue of this case and why it happens a general advise.

1. Most of the time ,check that if u have installed , updated recently on Ubunu and Windows there are libraries like libsoup in linux whihc were the casuse of my crash.

2. Check also a new Hardware problem and try to investigate the Logfile which STS or Java generated and also syslog in linux by

   tail - f /var/lib/messages or some other file 

   Then by carfully looking at those file the one you have crash log ... you can really solve the issue as follow .

sudo unlink /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1

or

sudo unlink /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsoup-2.4.so.1

Done !! Cheers!!
