I have received this error after upgrading my java. I can see my ini file has below content.

Change the path in the .ini-file. 

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\JDK1.8.0_172\bin\javaw.exe

if you still see the issue Change it into: 

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_172\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll

Note: The path should be in the new line after -vm.

I had exactly similar error. Eclipse worked well after I deleted 'javapath' folder from C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java directory.

In my case the error was pretty silly: in the config.ini there was an error in the last line where the memory parameter -Xmx was set to "2024". I'm pretty sure I did not edit that line by hand. I reverted it to -Xmx1024m to make it work

-Xmx2024m

changed to 

-Xmx1024m

the issue seems to be related to the Java vm 1.8.131 (32bit) that responds with an error any time I try to ask more than 1477m, even when I have more than 4GB of free ram:

java -Xmx1477m
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for 1513472KB object heap

on the same PC a JDK 1.7 does not have any issues in using 2GB
