JVM Crash - “EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION”

Question

Today I decided to continue working on a program that I had created for my Computer Science class. Upon running it, I am greeted with this in the console:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x00007ffeb23c7510, pid=7320, tid=9084
#
# JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0_11-b12) (build 1.8.0_11-b12)
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.11-b03 mixed mode windows-amd64 compressed oops)
# Problematic frame:
# C  0x00007ffeb23c7510
#
# Failed to write core dump. Minidumps are not enabled by default on client versions of Windows
#
# An error report file with more information is saved as:
# C:\Users\Adam\Desktop\eclipse-standard-luna-R-win32-x86_64\eclipse\workspace\CS PROGRAM FINAL\hs_err_pid7320.log
#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:
#   http://bugreport.sun.com/bugreport/crash.jsp
# The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.
# See problematic frame for where to report the bug.
#

So, I try to run another program that is completely unrelated to the first one, and the same thing happens. Bear in mind that everything was working perfectly yesterday.

Then, I tried to install a fresh copy of eclipse (Luna) on and try the program again.

Running a simple "Hello World" program works perfectly, but once again, running the first program crashes the JVM with the same error.

I am running Java 1.8 on Windows 8.1 64-bit.

The program that I cannot run simply uses AWT and Swing classes as well as some io classes such as BufferedWriter.

This is the log produced by eclipse:

#

Could this be a hardware problem?

Answer 1

Running on windows 10, changing from java version 1.8.0_121 to 1.8.0_231 resolved the error for me.

Answer 2

The crash happens inside DirectX library: d3d9.dll. Try the following options:

• Update / reinstall graphics driver.
• Switch off graphics card utilities (I've noticed RivaTuner in the list of loaded libraries).
• Run Java with -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false JVM option or set J2D_D3D=false environment variable. This would definitely help, though Java will not make use of Direct3D acceleration.

Answer 3

I had this same issue. I was using Java version 1.6 update 45. And project requirement was Java 1.6 I downgraded the version from 1.6 update 45 to 1.6 update 38. It worked for me. Hope this works for you, in case if you have specific Java requirements.

Answer 4

I went through all the answers but nothing worked in my case.

Eventually it turned out to be a permission issue on the C:\drive .

So basically Program Files\Java was not having rights on that user who calls the applet. However when ran with the administrator profile it worked.
