Error detected while processing function eclim#PingEclim[7]..eclim#Execute:

[timlag1305]

I tried setting up eclim 2.6 to use the msys2 version of vim 8 (I have Eclipse Neon installed as well). To test the setup, I ran :PingEclim which resulted in the following error:

Error detected while processing function eclim#PingEclim[7]..eclim#Execute:
line 125:
E121: Undefined variable: Microsoft
E15: Invalid expression: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]^M^@Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.^M^@^M@workingdirectory>

I believe the error has to do with line 170 in autoload/eclim.vim where an attempt to evaluate the above expression fails.

I don't know if this helps but here is the output of vim --version:

I encounter the exact same problem with a very similar setup and can't find any other resource about it on the web.

I'm using:

• Eclim 2.6.0
• Eclipse Neon 4.6.2
• Vim 8
• GitBash (which uses msys2 if I'm not mistaken)
• Windows 10

And the output of vim --version is:

If I can do something to help debug/fix the problem I'll gladly do it.

I've experienced the same problem under similar conditions. I fixed it by adding ".exe" to the various cmd calls in the function eclim#util#System in .vim/eclim/autoload/eclim/util.vim. In the line 1337 (not kidding) in the first place.

Happy ecliming! :)
