I’m new to Eclipse, Java and Junit. I’m trying to get a Junit test to run and I keep getting a cannot connect to VM message. I’m using MyEclipse Blue 6.5, this is on a project that some other programmers have been working on for a while. I created a new workspace and a HelloJava program and I could create a junit test and run it. But I can’t get a test to run on the existing development project. I can debug it though. Here is the error:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.jdt.launching 4 120 2008-08-07 14:52:21.209
!MESSAGE Cannot connect to VM

Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details and paste the information here for me.

Can you just try to run junit tests from just a normal eclipse install. A similar issue was report on the forums a while back and it turned out that this was an Eclipse related issue. I want to rule out anything that may suggest this is a similar Eclipse related issue.

I installed Eclipse pointed it to the work space that MyEclipse Blue is using and I think the Junit test ran. There were no VM connect errors. There were some errors when the test ran but I think that was because of our code. Below is the information from the Installation Summary detail :
